Security Risk Assessment

Going beyond compliance to transform the way your healthcare organization manages risk.

Let's Talk

Most risk assessments don’t go far enough, providing only a basic evaluation and a list of the security risks to your organization. To meet and even exceed regulatory requirements, healthcare organizations deserve a more comprehensive approach.

Fortified’s HIPAA and NIST cybersecurity risk assessments take you beyond basic HIPAA compliance. We’re with you over the long-haul to partner with you and help you meet your corrective plan milestones and cyber maturity goals with expert advice and counsel.

Each assessment is guided by a Security Compliance Advisor and includes:

  • Monthly meetings to review assessment progress and outstanding deliverables
  • A prioritized list of findings and recommendations
  • A final report and executive summary that you can share with key stakeholders
  • A post assessment Corrective Action Plan (CAP) to help you begin the remediation process
  • Monthly CAP Calls designed to drive risk reduction and increase overall program maturity
