How Healthcare Organizations can Discover/Classify/Protect Unstructured Data

The digitization of healthcare has caused an unrelenting growth trend in unstructured data, with no slowdown in sight. Patient records, lab tests, PACS imaging, and research data are now stored electronically and as the amount of healthcare data continues to skyrocket, so do data vulnerability and security risks. No healthcare organization can afford a data breach or cyber-attack: stealing or encrypting sensitive patient records damages organizations’ reputation and causes huge financial losses, but worse of all, it can halt medical procedures or administration of treatments. 

Because of the size and nature of healthcare data–a typical hospital will have over 50 PB of data1, 80% of which is unstructured–traditional Data Access, Deletion, Retention, Masking and technologies are inefficient and inadequate. Legacy solutions are rules based which miss Dark PHI/PII data which is constantly changing and evolving. With today’s exponential growth of healthcare data, you need a solution which handles Unstructured/Structured data. 

Another challenge is how do you correlate PHI data to an individual (patients data) stored in Unstructured/Structured data formats and classify it automatically, to provide a clear view of risky users, data sets and of any anomalies happening across your data sets. Legacy solutions cannot handle such issues with regex/rule based systems. 

Does this sound familiar? Is this the situation in your hospital, clinic, or research center? If so, you should know there is a better way.
