From Invasive Spyware to Reliable HIPAA Compliance

From Invasive Spyware to Reliable HIPAA Compliance

If students had a hard time getting around Deep Freeze, the Center’s staff and providers would have an even harder time.

Jen Blackledge,

IT Manager, The Center

The Center was struggling to maintain HIPAA compliance due to invasive spyware and illegal software compromising workstations, requiring Ms. Blackledge to spend up to 10 hours a week on server cleanups. After evaluating various solutions, The Center implemented Deep Freeze, which provided a simple and effective way to maintain security and compliance, drastically reducing maintenance time and costs
