whitepaper IT Systems Validation for SOx and Regulatory Compliance: Importance of Information Systems Audit and Validation2006-09-01 01:00:13 MetricStream
  Information technology has become a core enabler of business processes within the organizations today. As a result, companies are required to audit and validate their relevant IT systems to ensure that their business processes and underlying records comply with regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or Healthcare Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) or 21 CFR Part 11(FDA). This paper defines an "Easy-to-implement" framework for auditing and validating IT systems for regulatory compliance. It also identifies a best practice which calls for IT organizations and software vendors to proactively audit their software development and implementation processes on an ongoing basis to identify and correct any systemic issues to lower the cost of compliance.

whitepaper PACS and NAS - A Strategic Fit2006-08-17 12:13:11 Agami Systems
  The challenge of handling large volumes of patient-related data and images has now outgrown traditional ways of dealing with such information. Sharing, retrieving, saving, and viewing high-resolution medical images (MRIs, X-rays, etc) in conjunction with corresponding patient information accurately and reliably every time demands technology like Picture Archive Communication System (PACS).

PACS serves as a constantly growing and evolving repository for medical images and patient information. Medical information can easily be stored, recalled, displayed, manipulated and printed digitally, greatly improving the efficiency of imaging departments. However, like most other applications designed for such specific purposes, PACS needs to be implemented effectively. Patient information requirements, such as storage, security, and retrieval should be determined in advance and matched with the most appropriate storage methods. Thus, health professionals have had electronic storage and access to medical diagnostic images, but the sheer volume of image data, in terms of generated images and size of image files, has always overloaded the capabilities of PACS. Not enough space and slow access has especially been a problem in long-term, large storage of images.

Image compression techniques have greatly enhanced the performance of PACS, substantially decreasing transmission times and storage requirements while permitting shorter retrieval times. This, coupled with a new generation NAS (Network Attached Storage), can provide a solid foundation for protecting, managing, and sharing individually identifiable health information for healthcare organizations.

Better performance at lower costs - that's the maxim that drives the new generation NAS devices. In that respect, they far outperform existing NAS devices. The total cost of ownership is now down to nearly one-tenth of legacy NAS devices. Network-efficient, File System Replication (FSR) technology, now sta 		  
whitepaper Achieving Automated Compliance2006-08-09 12:22:09 BigFix
  In this new issue of BigFix's "IT Executive Briefings," you'll learn how a security configuration management solution that provides real-time visibility into thousands of PCs, laptops, and servers can help today's distributed enterprises automate their regulatory compliance efforts. The paper includes a reprint of Gartner's January 2006 RAS Core Research Note, "The Chief Information Security Officer's Guide to Compliance," which offers keen insights into the reasons why compliance is largely "a negotiation with the auditor" and why auditors expect your controls to be organized, well-documented, and defensible.   
whitepaper IT Compliance Benchmark Report, 20062006-09-12 12:24:44 Symantec
  Download this research report from Symantec to read the results of a survey on IT compliance practices in large organizations representing an array of industries, including government agencies. The purpose of the benchmark survey, which was conducted by SecurityCompliance.com from December 2005 through March 2006, was to establish industry norms for compliance-related activities based on the results of real-world regulatory audits. This resulting report classifies organizations that perform above and below the defined norms as "leaders" and "laggards" and teases out the traits that separate them. The takeaway is a list of five key actions that can improve compliance results in most any organization.

  
whitepaper Protected, Portable, Price/Performance for Permanent Online Archive2006-09-20 01:00:17 PowerFile
  "One of the major reasons that companies are implementing disk-based archives is to lower their storage costs but still keep archive data online and easily accessible. However, moving data from disk to disk does not necessarily create a leap in lowering capital costs. PowerFile offers an interesting alternative approach to digital archiving worth evaluating....The PowerFile PSA actually provides customers with four tiers, including high performance NAS-based disk storage (Tier One), in-library DVD for lower cost online storage (Tier Two), onsite vaulted DVD (Tier Three) and offsite vaulted DVD for long term archival (Tier Four). The combination provides a compelling blend of price/performance, permanence, protection and portability." Read more....

whitepaper Securing Healthcare With Taceo2006-06-29 04:17:14 Essential Security Software
  Operating a medical practice is assiduous work requiring great attention to detail on a variety of fronts. Patient privacy has always been an important concept in the medical profession. One of the most time and labor consuming tasks in maintaining an electronic medical record is importing non-digital patient information such as radiology reports, hospital dictation and consultation/referral letters. Transmitting digital information securely, however, can be problematic at best. Healthcare providers, payers or pharmaceutical companies have electronic information that must be protected. Essential Taceo virtually eliminates the costs associated with safeguarding Protected Health Information (PHI).
