Overview:
Like any other business, healthcare organizations are susceptible
to employee misuse of Internet access, but when healthcare employees
inadvertently (or purposefully) disclose sensitive patient information,
there is a higher price to pay. Patient confidentiality is one
of the sacred tenets of those who practice medicine and breaching
that trust comes with substantial consequence. There is no margin
for error when it comes to securing the healthcare organization's
Web and email gateway.
