HIPAA Security Risk Assessments
Risk assessments for Connecticut medical and dental practices, behavioral health providers, and business associates who need documented HIPAA Security Rule safeguards.
We work frequently with small healthcare organizations in the Farmington Valley and across Connecticut — dental offices, specialty practices, and HIPAA business associates who store ePHI in Microsoft 365, practice management systems, or cloud backups. Root Command IT provides risk analysis, gap assessments, and remediation guidance aligned to the HIPAA Security Rule.
What we assess
- Risk analysis — identify threats to electronic protected health information and evaluate current safeguards
- Access controls — user provisioning, role-based access, and termination procedures
- Security policies — written policies addressing required administrative, physical, and technical safeguards
- Workforce practices — training, sanctions, and security awareness documentation
- Incident response — breach notification procedures and incident handling
- Backup and recovery — data backup, restoration testing, and contingency planning
- Vendor relationships — business associate agreements and vendor security oversight
- Technical safeguards — encryption, audit logging, integrity controls, and transmission security
- Evidence and documentation — organized evidence suitable for internal review or external audit preparation
Who this is for
Medical and dental practices, behavioral health organizations, and business associates handling protected health information who need a documented security program and evidence for audits or customer reviews.
