Healthcare organizations — tasked with protecting patient information, ensuring regulatory compliance and maintaining seamless access to vital systems — require comprehensive access management strategies.
To achieve this, modern healthcare IT solutions such as identity and access management (IAM), multifactor authentication (MFA) and privileged access management (PAM) can be combined to provide robust, layered security.
Once a healthcare organization decides to implement an access management strategy, it must address each of the three functions holistically, considering the size of the organization, the number of roles involved, and the types of data in question as well as access to it.
A small clinic may have only a few roles and a limited range of specialists, while a large hospital would require a more sophisticated approach involving multiple clinics and locations, a diverse set of patient data and remote access considerations.
