Integrated Software Builds and Verifies Security Policies for Healthcare
Organizations

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- PoliVec, Inc., formerly
e-business technology, Inc., announced today specially integrated security
products targeted to the healthcare industry. The suite of products helps
healthcare providers and payers build security policies, output an
implementation plan, and scan the network for compliance with the developed
security policies. This solution includes detailed help with security
compliance under the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act
(HIPAA), a mandate set by Congress for the healthcare industry.
Because HIPAA guidelines are complex and not specific to individual
networks and installations, healthcare providers and payers need a highly
technical staff to weed through the requirements and determine how they must
be applied to their network or hire specialized HIPAA consultants. The
PoliVec Builder HIPAA solution translates the regulatory compliance
requirements into specific security policies and provides operating system-
specific implementation standards. Using PoliVec Builder, instead of weeks of
analysis and formulation, HIPAA compliance and implementation is dramatically
shortened and completely documented.
PoliVec Builder is an automated security policy development solution
designed for a wide variety of users with diverse levels of security
experience. Using a combination of interactive dialogue screens and a HIPAA-
compliant policy solution, system and security administrators develop a
comprehensive security policy that can be implemented throughout their
enterprise. Once a security policy has been defined, PoliVec Builder
generates operating system-specific implementation standards, which provide
the IT staff with step-by-step instructions for implementing the security
policy throughout the organization.
PoliVec Builder will provide implementation standards for Windows NT 4.0,
Windows 2000, and Sun Solaris operating systems. Additional implementation
standards will be added soon to support Linux, Novell Netware, AIX, OS/400,
and HPUX.
The policy specifications can be exported to allow integration with other
software applications including PoliVec Scanner, a Windows NT/2000 security
management tool. PoliVec Scanner, which does not require an agent to be
installed, takes the output from PoliVec Builder and scans the network for the
defined policies, checking to make sure they have been implemented.
Availability
The PoliVec Builder HIPAA-compliant solution will be available in March
2002. Introductory pricing for a HIPAA-compliant policy solution and one
family of operating system implementation standards starts at $9,992 until
April 30, 2002. Call PoliVec, Inc. for more details at 719.599.9605.
