Guided risk analysis covering all ePHI systems with automated scoring, threat identification, and remediation tracking per 45 CFR 164.308(a)(1).
HIPAA's Security Rule requires covered entities to conduct an accurate and thorough assessment of the potential risks and vulnerabilities to ePHI. HIPAA Defender walks you through the entire process with guided workflows that ensure nothing is missed.
Risk is calculated using a likelihood-by-impact matrix on a 5–25 scale. Every identified threat is scored and categorized as Critical, High, Medium, Low, or Minimal so you can prioritize remediation efforts.
Assessments are organized by category — Access Control, Data Protection, Network Security, Physical Security, and more — ensuring you cover every angle required by the Security Rule.
Identify threats across all ePHI touchpoints including workstations, servers, cloud services, mobile devices, and physical locations. Each threat is linked to specific CFR references.
Track your risk posture over time with point-in-time snapshots. Compare assessments to demonstrate ongoing improvement to auditors and leadership.
Map and track your security controls across administrative, technical, and physical safeguard categories. Each control is linked to specific CFR requirements so you always know where you stand.
Track Administrative, Technical, and Physical controls separately. Each control includes implementation status, testing results, and evidence documentation.
Every control maps directly to 45 CFR Part 164 requirements. The platform includes a complete CFR reference library with section text and applicability notes.
Monitor which controls are fully implemented, partially implemented, planned, or not applicable. Dashboard views give you instant visibility into your safeguard coverage.
Attach evidence and record test results for each control. When an auditor asks for proof, everything is documented and ready.
When risks or gaps are identified, HIPAA Defender tracks them through to resolution with clear ownership, deadlines, and verification workflows.
