Healthcare

Whether addressing industry compliance initiatives, increasing user productivity, or reducing password management costs, Imprivata OneSign is the choice for a growing number of healthcare organizations.

Password Management
OneSign Single Sign-On was designed to make password management easy for IT and end users alike. Implementing and managing it is extremely fast and simple.

• OneSign meets the needs of the mobile healthcare professional — and eliminates caregiver distraction. Users simply log on to applications as always, and need no training or modifications to their desktop environment.
  

• OneSign recognizes when new appliance versions, SSO profiles, or user security policies are added or changed and automatically handles all updates.
  

• Organizations can enable Roaming Sessions and Personalized Drive-Mapping by extending OneSign events to launch an unlimited set of critical business functions.
  

Compliance
Whether you are tasked with HIPAA compliance, SOX, the UK Data protection act or any other type of regulation, compliance can be costly and require extensive time and resources comply. Imprivata OneSign enables you to secure complex legacy applications and IT environments and demonstrate regulatory compliance:

• OneSign automates password policy implementation—creating unique, strong passwords behind the scenes to ensure compliance and patient data privacy. It performs password changes automatically on behalf of your users, ensuring stricter security and eliminating security breaches associated with passwords written on sticky notes affixed to keyboards and monitors.
  

• With built-in support for a broad range of authentication methods such as passwords, finger biometrics, ID tokens, active or passive proximity cards, Windows and non-Windows smart cards, including building access cards and many National Health and ID cards, and finger biometrics. OneSign offers a smart and effective way to increase security while leveraging the benefits and convenience of SSO.
  

• Built-in monitoring provides detailed audit logs of which users accessed which applications and when, including all password change activity. Detailed access logs and reports give you the ability to refine and strengthen security policies and enforce HIPAA compliance across all applications.
