HIPAA · Security, Breach & Privacy
HIPAA governs how covered entities and business associates protect Protected Health Information (PHI). Its Security Rule safeguards are what most technology vendors need to demonstrate.
Who needs HIPAA?
- Health-tech companies and any business associate handling PHI
- Vendors asked to sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA)
- Teams needing administrative, physical, and technical safeguards in place
How Keel helps with HIPAA
- The HIPAA Security Rule safeguards as a control set you can implement and evidence
- Crosswalk to SOC 2 and ISO 27001 so overlapping controls count once
- Readiness tracking so you can answer a BAA request with confidence
Collect once, comply everywhere
HIPAA shares its DNA with SOC 2, ISO 27001, and the other frameworks Keel supports. Implement a control once and it counts toward every framework it satisfies, so adding HIPAA rarely means starting from scratch.
Features that help with HIPAA: Policy management · Controls & crosswalk · Security awareness training
Other frameworks: ISO/IEC 27001 · CIS Critical Security Controls · PCI DSS · SOC 2 · NIST Cybersecurity Framework · NIST SP 800-53 · All frameworks →
