Since 2005, UB has been tracking and classifying information
security incidents. Information sharing and partnerships have
helped better secure UB's infrastructure.
Many of us deal with sensitive data every day as part of our
job. We each have a responsibility to safe guard sensitive data
against unauthorized disclosure.
The "Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of
1996" (HIPAA) provides protection of our medical information. UB
needs to be aware of how HIPAA affects the information we
handle.
