“We chose to have ComplyAssistant’s professional service team distribute our BA assessments, rate each BA assessment for risk and operational compliance, and assign mitigation action items. After using ComplyAssistant’s software and working with their team of healthcare cybersecurity consultants on this project, I would recommend them highly.” --CIO, Cape Regional Health System

The Current Landscape
An organization’s approach to cybersecurity is vastly important to their overall wellbeing. In the healthcare industry, this is especially true. Cyberattacks, data breaches and ransomware are just some of the ways hackers can dismantle a system, regardless of size.
While these threats are real and extremely consequential, ComplyAssistant’s experts are available to help. The cost of outsourcing cybersecurity services can be justified by putting less pressure on internal staff, reducing downtime and achieving cost savings in the long term. Read on to learn more.
How Can Your Organization Benefit From Cybersecurity Consulting Services?
Regardless of the size of your organization, there’s a good chance that some aspect of your security planning can be outsourced to a consultant. Today, the level of vulnerability is too high to do things as we’ve always done. Instead, it is a wise use of time and resources to bring in expert help in areas where you need support. If cybersecurity is one of those areas, consider the many benefits, including:
-
Long-term cost savings. Did you know that depending on the level of negligence, the average HIPAA violation can range from $100-$50,000 per record involved in the breach? For many organizations, this kind of penalty could be devastating.
-
Less burden on internal staff. We all know the challenges associated with too much work and not enough staff. Having a consultant can free up your team to focus on other deliverables, and often brings a level of expertise that your team may be lacking.
