The Crucial Role of IT Governance and Compliance in Healthcare

By: Tony R. Hutton

Narrated by: Jimmy Alli

Cybersecurity and project management are dynamic fields, and I’ve devoted over 20 years to both. During my career, I have helped a number of well-known businesses, nonprofits, and government agencies strengthen their digital infrastructures and create thorough risk management plans to protect sensitive data from the many cyber dangers that exist today.

My expertise spans from advanced threat detection and mitigation to crafting holistic cybersecurity strategies that encompass not just the technical aspects but also the human elements of security. I am constantly updating my skill set to stay ahead of the latest security vulnerabilities and threat vectors.

My expertise includes conducting vulnerability assessments, analyzing network traffic, and providing awareness training. Additionally, I understand regulatory compliance requirements such as GDPR, SOX, FISMA, PCI DSS, HIPAA, FERPA, and others. In our digital age, where threats can come from any corner of the globe and impact businesses of all sizes, I believe in a proactive, multi-layered approach. I am passionate about empowering businesses and individuals to understand cyber risks.

Effective IT governance establishes frameworks that guide decision-making, risk management, and resource allocation to support high-quality care while safeguarding patient data. Compliance helps mitigate threats, enhance operational efficiency, and maintain the integrity and confidentiality of healthcare data.
