Aintree University Hospital
“There is a sea-change in the depth of data that is now being recorded electronically. Previously, most confidential information was on paper, locked in secure storage and well managed. But now that we’re starting to record an increasing amount of clinical and confidential data on electronic systems, the thinking has got to mature. Solutions such as FairWarning® are going to be imperative.”

Christopher PaidhrinIT Security/HIPAA Compliance Officer -
Aintree University Hospital
“Trusts need to do all that they can to maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of their systems to ensure that data is processed in a secure manner. Audit capability has long been an issue with NHS systems. In order to protect our data, we first need to understand how it is being used. What are the risks, what are the exploit vectors? Without a privacy detection solution, it’s almost impossible to identify this. Now that we are implementing FairWarning®, we will be able to monitor, identify and respond to what is going on. This is hugely advantageous.”

Gartner, Inc.
“With increased clinical and business automation within the care delivery organization (CDO), along with increased constituent access to protected healthcare information (PHI), CDOs must take steps now to detect and prevent unauthorized access, identity and medical identity theft. Application audit log monitoring, reporting and alerting is a practical and non-invasive approach to compliance.”

Center for Democracy and Technology
"Security and privacy breaches threaten to undermine the public's trust in health IT and electronic health information exchange - just at the time when policymakers are actively promoting it. This report [Breach Findings] demonstrates that implementation of industry best practices reduces the risk of breach and is key to enabling more widespread adoption and use of e-health technologies."
Deven McGrawDirector of the Health Privacy Project -
HITRUST Alliance LLC
"Historically healthcare providers have relied on intensive and manual procedures to monitor for breaches. As a result, many of these entities are unaware of the actual number of breaches within their organizations and therefore unable to report or thwart these breaches. What should be eye-opening for these organizations that do not have a reliable automated monitoring process, is the vast financial and reputational risk posed by any one of these breaches."
Cliff BakerVP & Chief Strategy Officer -
HIMSS & Cynergistek
"For the first time in this industry, there is data that quantifies the risk of not proactively and systematically monitoring for breaches. More importantly, this newly released report [Breach Findings] proves that policy without enforcement doesn't work and creates entity-wide risk through empirical data. For EHRs to be successful and to secure public trust, the industry as a whole must commit to establishing ongoing breach monitoring, an environment of informed compliance and effective risk mitigation."
