MultiScale Selects Leading Cybersecurity Firm’s
Services to Proactively Protect Client Data
CynergisTek, Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN: CTEK), a leader in healthcare
cybersecurity and information assurance, today announced that
MultiScale Health Networks, a pioneer
in bringing real-time problem-solving innovations to healthcare,
has selected CynergisTek’s signature service, Compliance Assist
Partner Program (CAPP). MultiScale will leverage CynergisTek’s
expertise and comprehensive risk assessments to proactively secure
the MultiScale Hive solution, which enables clinicians to securely
communicate and collaborate with EHR and health operations data to
address issues in real-time before they become problems.
In order for MultiScale to provide healthcare systems with the
most effective and efficient real-time access to electronic health
record (EHR) data, the data platform’s security is mission
critical. Since MultiScale Hive enhances access to information
contained in a health system’s EHR, the company selected
CynergisTek’s CAPP offering, which provides privacy, security, and
compliance expertise, to refine and strengthen its platform data
security through required assessments, testing, and ongoing
advisory services.
“With MultiScale Hive, we see immense opportunity to empower
clinicians with the data they need to address problems before they
happen and work together to improve quality, drive more efficiency,
and help health systems positively impact the bottom-line,” said
Jim Harding, CEO, MultiScale Health Networks. “When evaluating
vendors who could help us proactively secure our solutions both
today and tomorrow, CynergisTek was the clear choice given the
company’s unsurpassed knowledge of the unique security and privacy
challenges in the healthcare industry.”
Both provider organizations and healthcare vendors can augment
existing security and privacy programs by engaging with CynergisTek
and implementing its suite of cybersecurity, privacy, and
compliance services. CynergisTek’s CAPP solution is fully
customizable to meet the unique needs of each organization it works
with, and provides holistic, ongoing support for all of its clients
in order to maintain vigilance in security and privacy
programs.
“Healthcare continues to be a top target for cybercriminals.
With innovation and increased data interoperability, now is the
time for making security precautions a critical component going to
market,” said Mac McMillan, CEO and President, CynergisTek. “We are
honored to be working with MultiScale Health Networks to provide
guidance and support to address the shifting threat landscape as
the company continues to transform how clinicians are able to
utilize EHR clinical and operational data in a safe and secure
manner.”
