Now that your data is stored virtually, how do you maintain compliance? Datasmith has many clients in the healthcare field, we also have clients that routinely store and access sensitive client information like billing information, social security numbers, and addresses. With the transition to virtual computing and virtual storage, a new guideline has been put in place to protect consumer information.
As a business owner, you are responsible for making sure that you stay compliant with how you handle consumer information. But did you know that if you opt to use a 3rd party application or provider to handle consumer information, you are responsible for making sure that provider remains compliant too? That’s right. You are responsible for yourself, your business, your staff, and your technology provider.
Did you know that in the state of Massachusetts it is mandated that all data be encrypted? Despite there not being national standards, individual states have begun drafting and implementing laws to protect sensitive information in the digital era. Datasmith utilizes its team and outside resources to make sure we follow the updates to keep your information safe and business protected.
At Datasmith we pride ourselves on transparent communication. We are upfront with our security policies and provide all necessary documentation to our clients so they can show their consumers how safe their information is. Through our partnership with Compass IT Compliance we can ensure your business stays protected.
