HIPAA's Security Rule requires that healthcare organizations and their BAs have a Security Incident Response Plan. Is yours ready to hold up under pressure? 📞 (503) 384-2538

When a breach happens (because they do), you need to know *instantly* who to call, what to do, and how to notify the right people. Plus, if your state's privacy laws are stricter than HIPAA (check yours if you're not sure), you're required to meet that higher bar, too.

Apgar & Associates helps healthcare organizations and their BAs create, test, and train on incident response plans built for real-world compliance: HIPAA, state law, and beyond.

Why wait for an incident to find out your plan has gaps? 🌐 https://1l.ink/SRRDNN8

More info to follow! ⚠️ New federal cybersecurity rules are coming; ⏰'s ticking. CISA is finalizing regulations under CIRCIA that will require 300,000+ businesses across 16 critical infrastructure sectors to report cyber incidents within 72 hours and ransomware payments within 24 hours.
