Automatic encryption protects employees and gives added
confidence to Trinity Health System Patients
Zix Corporation (ZixCorp), (Nasdaq: ZIXI), a leader in
email data protection, announced that Trinity Health System
has selected Zix® Email Encryption to secure email for 2,000
employees. With automatic scanning and encryption, Trinity Health
System protects its employees, enhances data security for its
patients and meets its regulatory obligations under the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
(HIPAA).
“We have an obligation to our community to protect our patients
and their privacy, and data security has long been a top priority
for Trinity Health System. We’ve used email encryption for years,
but our previous solution placed too much reliance on our
employees. Determining when to encrypt added stress on daily
communication, and the extra steps weren’t convenient,” said Tom
Kiger, Director of Information Systems for Trinity Health System.
“In implementing automatic email encryption with ZixCorp, everyone
is better protected. We enhance data security for our patients
while eliminating the burden on our employees.”
Trinity Health System uses ZixGateway®, a
policy-based email encryption service, and out-of-the-box Zix
policy filters to scan and encrypt email messages and attachments
that contain sensitive content, such as protected health
information and Social Security numbers. Zix policy filters are a
proven benefit to its customers, which include one in five U.S.
hospitals and more than 30 Blue Cross Blue Shield
organizations.
Another benefit to Trinity Health System is the convenient
experience of receiving Zix Encrypted Email. ZixCorp automatically
delivers encrypted email in the most secure, easiest manner
possible, including the industry’s only fully transparent delivery
of encrypted email. With transparent email encryption, Trinity
Health System employees and any recipients using ZixGateway can
exchange secure email without any passwords or extra steps.
“The user experience of Zix Email Encryption is smooth,” said
Kiger. “We haven’t heard from employees or recipients since rolling
it out, and that is a true sign that everything is working
perfectly.”
“Email encryption shouldn’t be a burden. Automatic email
encryption provides unparalleled peace of mind and ease of use for
our customers and their employees. Automatic decryption makes email
security just as easy for recipients,” said Rick Spurr,
ZixCorp’s Chief Executive Officer. “In removing the stress, hassles
and frustrations, ZixCorp allows email security to work in the
background and lets healthcare organizations focus on patient
health and quality care.”
