Bsafe Addresses HIPAA with Field Masking for i5/OS Apps
by Alex Woodie

The 1996 passage of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is heralded as a major breakthrough in the protection of patient data. And although it helps soothe the possibility of identity theft or other wrongful use of sensitive data, HIPAA can be a major headache for the IT staff charged with implementing its processes.

by Alex Woodie

Garbage in, garbage out. The old computing adage still has legs, and perhaps it's even more pertinent considering the astronomical growth rate of data at many sites. You have business rules and triggers in place to keep data entry on the up and up, but are you 100 percent certain that no users or programs are tampering with your data in other ways? i5/OS security tool company Kisco Information Systems last week introduced a new utility called iFileAudit for tracking changes to the DB2/400 data.
