On January 6, 2025, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Civil Rights (OCR) released a proposed rule, HIPAA Security Rule to Strengthen the Cybersecurity of Electronic Health Information. This session will highlight the key updates, what they mean for providers, and how organizations can better protect patient data against cybersecurity threats.

You’ll walk away with:

• An understanding of OCR’s removal of “addressable” vs. “required” standards.
• Insight into the proposed updates and their implications for data security practices.
• Knowledge of resources to help align your cybersecurity infrastructure with best practices.
