Securing Protected Health Information at Rest

Safeguard protected health information and other sensitive data with strong, easy-to-use encryption

Today, patient information is becoming ever more available through electronic health information systems and on laptops and mobile devices. As a result, the risk of data breaches has increased significantly, along with the risk of subsequent regulatory fines, litigation, and damage to reputation. McAfee helps safeguard protected health information (PHI) with seamless, integrated solutions that optimize your security architecture. McAfee helps you move your PHI from “unsecured” to “secured” status—HIPAA/HITECH-approved encryption can be quickly and easily deployed to laptops, files, smart phones, and USB sticks with minimal disruption to doctors. When your data acquires “secured” status, a lost laptop is no longer subject to costly breach notification and fines.

Key Benefits

  • Secure sensitive data without disrupting doctors and other staff—Configure protected devices to automatically encrypt protected health information (PHI) when it is copied to a removable device, such as a USB drive, ensuring privacy compliance even if the device is lost or stolen by an unauthorized user. Encrypt laptops, portable storage devices, and mobile devices without requiring extra logins by leveraging our seamless integration with Microsoft authentication.
  • Comply with HIPAA/HITECH PHI legislation—Protect PHI on devices with industry-standard AES-256 and RC5-1024 encryption, so data will be classified as “secure” and not subject to breach notification and fines.
  • Save time and money with a centralized management console—Manage encryption—and prove compliance—with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator, the centralized security management platform that enables you to quickly and easily set policies, perform audits, and prove compliance with data privacy regulations using the latest open protocols and regulatory line items.
  • Manage expanding workloads with scalable protection—Support demanding workloads, geographically distributed network architectures, and multiple IT groups. McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator manages hundreds of thousands of nodes for our largest customers.
