The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) sets the industry standard for protecting sensitive patient data. Data centers must have certain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards in place, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Organizational requirements, including the ability to sign a Business Associates Agreement, are another crucial consideration in becoming a HIPAA compliant data center.
HIPAA violations can result in severe consequences, including fines of up to $1.5 million, criminal charges, and jail time. No organization can afford to weather the costly penalties, or loss of revenue associated with a HIPAA violation.
