With remote and hybrid workflows, there is an increased vulnerability to cyberattacks. Many healthcare SMBs aren’t prepared enough to adapt to this new work environment. Clinics need to find new ways to provide more flexible treatment options. New solutions are needed to secure sensitive business and patient data, manage workflows, and mitigate cyberthreats. Microsoft provides healthcare SMBs with solutions for security, compliance, identity, and management in a single unified platform.
Productivity and Collaboration
- With Microsoft Teams, Healthcare SMBs have the solutions they need to create a secure, centralized hub for care teams to collaborate.
- By using custom channels, physicians can immediately respond to requests, review visual assets, and quickly answer patient questions, whether remote or in the office.
- Health teams can provide better patient care experiences through virtual doctor visits or automated appointment follow-ups.
- Medical teams and staff can connect across locations with high-quality virtual experiences by using features within Microsoft Teams like group chat, online meetings, calling, and web conferencing.
- Healthcare staff are able to securely connect with patients from their phone, personal device, or a clinic PC with Teams. By deploying security policies across various devices with Intune, data stays safe when staff travels with their devices.
- With OneDrive cloud storage, medical staff can securely edit and share patient documents and medical photos across devices.
Advanced Threat Protection
- With advanced threat protection and tools like Microsoft Defender, personal patient information, medical data, and more are protected.
- Ensure access to sensitive data is only accessible to approved staff and lower the risk of data leaks by applying security controls, such as multifactor authentication and role-based permissions using Conditional access.
- Prevent sensitive files and data from being accessed by hackers and unauthorized users by remotely erasing sensitive data from lost or stolen devices using Intune.
- With app protection for Microsoft mobile apps and custom access through Conditional Access, restrict the saving and copying of medical files and information.
Device Management and Compliance
- With mobile device management, care teams and staff are safe from cyberthreats. They can access medical documents from anywhere due to SMBs remotely applying security policies across their laptops and personal devices.
- Simplify compliance with healthcare mandates through built-in intelligence that provides visibility into data and privacy risks. Easily generate audit reports and stay compliant with regulations like HIPAA.
- The Microsoft 365 Compliance Center makes it simpler to comply with medical and data privacy requirements, such as setting reminders to delete sensitive patient data.
