Understanding Security Risk Assessment (SRA)
A security risk assessment (SRA) is the process of identifying and evaluating potential security threats to an organization’s information systems, focusing on both internal and third-party risks. Annual security risk assessments are critical in ensuring ongoing compliance with the HIPAA Security Rule.
Our cybersecurity consulting practice, Meditology Services, conducts tailored SRAs to help healthcare organizations and vendors ensure that healthcare organizations identify potential vulnerabilities that could expose patient data or lead to non-compliance and penalties. The assessment includes reviewing policies, technologies, and procedures, and it enables organizations to take preventative action by implementing necessary security measures to mitigate the identified risks.
