| Thursday, May 26, 2005 |
| CUPERTINO, Calif.–– ArcSight, Inc., announced the introduction of ArcSight ESM Healthcare Edition, which allows healthcare payors, providers and clearinghouses to quickly and clearly streamline security management practices for their unique environment. These practices include risk management, systems review, monitoring and incident response.
The Healthcare Edition melds ArcSight ESM’s powerful security management, reporting and workflow capabilities to the healthcare provider and insurance industries’ specific regulatory and security requirements. ArcSight ESM Healthcare Edition’s pre-defined, healthcare-tailored best practices, policy profiles and reporting features allow overburdened IT staffs to achieve automated, intelligent and auditable security management. “In order to achieve HIPAA compliance, we need to efficiently and comprehensively review and report on millions of security events each day,” said Tim Maletic, information services security officer for Priority Health, one of the top ten providers of health insurance plans in the nation. “ArcSight ESM streamlines our security operations, enabling us to easily maintain a security audit trail and review information system activity - all at a reasonable cost and without additional required headcount.” ArcSight ESM enables the collection of security log information from the entire infrastructure, including intrusion detection systems, firewalls, vulnerability assessment, router and operating system logs. ArcSight ESM Healthcare Edition reports are specifically tailored to generate HIPAA relevant statements that can be disseminated to compliance stakeholders and kept on record as proof of due diligence towards compliance with the HIPAA Security Standard. “ArcSight is dedicated to supporting our rapidly growing healthcare customer base as they address the challenges of maintaining security in a regulated and highly sensitive environment,” said Hugh Njemanze, chief technology officer and executive vice president of research and development at ArcSight. “ArcSight ESM Healthcare Edition delivers automated reporting, auditing and best practices designed to help healthcare organizations to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of patient health data from internal and external threats. We’re committed to providing the best solution in its class specifically tailored for a healthcare environment.” Healthcare organizations are invited to attend the ArcSight/Qualys complimentary Web Seminar, ”Stopping the HIPAA Security Time Drain”. This web seminar will address universal challenges with HIPAA security compliance and introduce economical methods for minimizing the burden on healthcare IT staffs. The web seminar will be held April 12, 2005 at 11:00 a.m. PST. Attendees can register by visiting http://www.arcsight.com/events/webinar/HIPAA/index.html. |
