HIPAA-Aligned Configuration & Policy Enforcement
Technical settings and security policies are managed with healthcare security requirements in mind, helping maintain consistent protections across covered systems.
Healthcare+
Managed IT and security built for healthcare.
Healthcare+ combines proactive IT management, cybersecurity, and HIPAA-focused compliance services for organizations responsible for protecting ePHI.
Healthcare organizations depend on the same technology as any modern business, but the systems and information they manage often carry additional security, privacy, and regulatory obligations.
Healthcare+ extends Zanarkand's Standard Managed IT foundation with services designed to help healthcare organizations protect ePHI, strengthen their security posture, and support their HIPAA Security Rule obligations.
Reliable IT. Healthcare-focused security.
