CertainSafe With HIPAA-Compliant File Sharing and Storage Solution

CertainSafe (Secure Cloud Systems LLC) announced its file sharing and storage service for the healthcare industry.

CertainSafe’s proprietary MicroTokenization means every piece of data is broken down, tokenized and scattered across multiple secure servers, ensuring that all medical documents and information are virtually unhackable.

Health are tops the list of per capita data breach cost by industries at $359, this according to the 2014 Ponemon Institute Cost of Data Breach Study. In comparison, the retail industry’s per capita data breach cost is only $105. Statistics such as these show the financial cost associated with data breaches for health care entities.

The solution includes file sharing, secure messaging, audit trail capabilities, shreding of deleted files, branding capabilties, version control and much more. Ten states use the technology behind it to protect data for health care exchanges, as well as a Fortune 50 health care corporation.

Most file sharing services available are not HIPAA compliant. No other file sharing service currently available has MicroTokenization which encrypts each file individually down to the byte level. This all but prevents the mass data breaches that have made headlines. This ensures each patient file is protected from prying eyes, all without the need for any software download.

“We’ve looked at all the various file sharing solutions on the market and have come to the conclusion that CertainSafe is the strongest and most robust solution for the healthcare industry,” says James Richards, chairman, Capio Partners, a healthcare asset buyer and collection agency. “Their MicroTokenization technology needs to be implemented throughout the various stakeholders so that they can ensure complete data security.“

“Patient confidentiality is critical to both the consumer as well as the health care provider,” says John Nachef, president, Secure Cloud Systems, parent company of CertainSafe. “Being HIPAA compliant means the assurance that your private information stays secured from hackers and data breaches. No other file sharing and storage service can come close to the level of security CertainSafe offers.“

Nachef noted that a well-known file sharing service website implicitly states “…does not currently have HIPAA, FERPA, SAS 70/SSAE 16, ISO 9001, ISO 27001, or PCI certifications.”

Online message boards are rife with individuals looking for ways to share important medical files but do not have a viable option. Popular file sharing software currently on the market also lacks assurance of deletion, while exposing your data to third parties who might access your valuable information, including employees and patients. There is also an overall loss of control of the information, risking unauthorized access and a lack of chain of custody.

This is a file sharing service with a PCI Level 1 DSS data security certification (which is more stringent than being in ‘compliance’). CertainSafe’s double-redundant datacenters are audited and certified to maintain a dual-standard SSAE16 and ISAE 3402 Service Organization Control (SOC) 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3.

Users can store HIPAA, PCI, PFI, PHI, PII as well as other types of sensitive data requiring compliance. Coupled with 100% money back guarantee, medical professionals can have peace of mind. Sensitive documents can be shared between specialists and patients alike or sent to referring physicians in a moment’s notice.

Other security methods includes a multi-layered login process that uses a personal picture and a personal phrase, both delivered from different servers. A challenge question follows that up to provide maximum login security.

Plans start from $8.97 per month.

CertainSafe is currently continuing to expand their network of healthcare resellers.
