What Our Customers Are Saying
What Is a HIPAA Compliant Email?
A HIPAA compliant email is a secure and private email system used by healthcare professionals to send protected health information to their patients and other colleagues. Using a secure email service to transmit PHI is necessary in a healthcare setting because PHI is valuable on the black market. Medical information can often sell for 10 times more than social security numbers.
A HIPAA compliant email requires strong security (such as end-to-end encryption), and best privacy practices to verify that emails are transmitted through the internet securely. To set up a HIPAA compliant email, an organization must deal with the complexity of setting up their own server to send secure emails. There are high upfront costs, and ongoing expenses associated with managing that server.

Need a HIPAA Compliant Email?
Are you a healthcare provider or entity that handles protected health information? If so, then you are legally required to have a HIPAA compliant email. Sending and receiving emails that contain protected health information on an email service that is not secure can put you and your patients at risk for a data breach. Studies have shown that email-based hacking incidents are the primary cause of data breaches in the healthcare industry. As a result, healthcare is the most heavily regulated industry in regards to data security. At Enterprise Guardian® , we implement the best security practices to safeguard PHI and significantly minimize the risk of a data breach by establishing secure emails.
Get in TouchHow Does it Work?
Whether it is stored on a laptop or being sent via email, it is key for healthcare entities to prioritize data security. While HIPAA laws do require that covered entities (CEs) implement appropriate safeguards to secure PHI, it does not specify how a CE should go about doing so.
One of the best practices for securing PHI is end-to-end data encryption. Transport layer security (TLS) strips PHI of all its identifiable factors in transit, making it anonymous and ultimately useless to a hacker. We also scan outgoing mail for sensitive information, archive all messages indefinitely, implement security systems that block over 95% of spam emails, and much more. Our data security practices not only safeguard your sensitive information but also provide an added layer of protection to give you the confidence you need.
