1 CONTINUOUS MONITORING A BETTER SOLUTION FOR MAINTAINING HEALTHCARE DATA SECURITY IN THE CLOUD Healthcare companies utilizing cloud infrastructure require continuous security monitoring. Learn how to prevent data loss, achieve HIPAA compliance, and protect against attacks. The healthcare industry s increasing trust in public cloud providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a good thing. In fact, by 2020, 80% of healthcare data will pass through the cloud at some point in its lifetime, as providers seek to leverage cloud-based technologies and infrastructure for data collection, aggregation, analytics and decision-making, according to IDC Health Insights. Unfortunately, there is an alarming lack of understanding in the market about how to secure and regulate sensitive healthcare data. This rapid expansion to the cloud by healthcare providers and applications has led to some of today s most notorious large-scale breaches. In fact, almost 96 million records were stolen in these 3 high profile cases alone: Community Health Systems (4.5 million), Anthem (80 million), and Premera (11 million). Why is this happening? The sensitive nature of the personal health information stored across these technologies makes healthcare data a goldmine to attackers. Not only is the data itself appealing to obtain, but because of healthcare s extensive partner network made up of providers, administrators, insurance companies, billing partners and more healthcare data can be vulnerable at many points across the business chain. Since just 2009, data about more than 120 million people has been compromised in more than 1,100 separate breaches at organizations handling protected health data. Moving to the cloud is surprisingly easy, but getting the right controls and alerting systems in place? Not so much. In order to address these cloud security requirements, businesses need to understand what security measures they need to prevent data loss, how to achieve HIPAA compliance, and how to monitor for anomalous user behavior inside servers and their workloads.

2 Why Continuous Security Monitoring Is a Necessity for Healthcare Companies Beyond check boxes: Committed to compliance and protecting sensitive data. Large-scale disruption across the healthcare industry today is leading to many incredible developments. Specifically, we are seeing advancements in: Health Analytics Wellness and Fitness Applications Health Management Solutions Health Networks These applications and platforms are churning out healthcare data by the terabyte. Health predictions are being developed to better diagnose conditions. Body and health measurements are being recorded to aid in improving fitness regimens and sports players performance. Platforms are also being developed to help providers manage costs. Networks are being built to connect healthcare stakeholders and improve communication during treatments. To support these advancements, healthcare companies are aggressively moving to the cloud (with some even starting out in the cloud) to take advantage of benefits like cost, scalability and collaboration. But there s one thing that still plagues many CEOs and CIOs in this space: cloud security. While most cloud providers offer some level of security for users AWS being the leader there is still a crucial layer of responsibility that is required by users to ensure absolute protection of sensitive data across its life-cycle. Without the right user-access controls and alerting systems in place to identify anomalous behavior, all healthcare data systems are at risk for serious compromise. A continuous security monitoring solution allows Fortune 500 companies and startups alike to protect their cloud environments from intrusion and data loss by continuously monitoring and providing insights into system activity. A Progressive Approach to Cloud Security in Healthcare How healthcare companies can implement cloud security to protect sensitive data. Securing your cloud environment shouldn t prevent your business from running fast. Often, what businesses say slow them down is the difficulty of visualizing issues in their cloud environment when something goes awry. Continuous monitoring solutions offer the level of visibility (into processes, users, network activity and more) that businesses need in order to operate securely while still moving at a high velocity.

3 With continuous security monitoring, the following security issues can be mitigated (and even avoided altogether): Insider Threats Do you know which applications, processes, and users are accessing personally identifiable information (PII) in your systems? Can you be certain that it s limited to only approved and authorized ones? Even if you have security policies and controls in place, inside actors can often get past your defenses. This is because, while data may reside deep inside production applications, authorized developers may need access to it. This can lead to accidental (or worse intentional) leaks of PII. Continuous security monitoring can mitigate these risks by alerting you of suspicious behavior the moment it happens. External Threats Are your systems connected to external command and control applications? Do you know the types of reconnaissance and exploitation attempts that are being directed at your servers in the cloud? Millions of patient records are processed and stored in healthcare networks. Hospitals need to be able to search for patient data, doctors need to connect with patients, and hospitals and doctors must communicate and share information among themselves. This data, in transit or at rest, is naturally a high-value target for attackers. data loss makes some of the biggest headlines, as it s one of the most sensitive and personal forms of data in the cloud. You might be surprised to learn that the uniform and consistent nature of the cloud actually makes it the ideal environment to monitor for intrusions. Continuous security monitoring provides the intelligence to understand an attack s impact and make informed decisions on how to respond. Introducing Threat Stack s Continuous Security Monitoring Solution Modern infrastructure requires modern security. Threat Stack offers a continuous security monitoring solution that protects your cloud from intrusions and data loss by providing critical insights into your system activity. Threat Stack monitors and records all activity happening in your cloud and sounds the alarm if suspicious behavior is detected. To do this, our lightweight agent lives in your Linux operating system and constantly watches and records deep system activity such as logins, processes, network activity, and file changes. This data is then securely analyzed for suspicious activity. When our systems detect abnormal behavior, they send you an alert packed with context so you can take action quickly and with confidence. You can t protect against attacks you can t see, which is why continuous security monitoring is necessary. It provides host-level intrusion detection based on behavior changes, not specific attack signatures. When deployed across your entire cloud infrastructure, this level of monitoring will identify where security gaps are, so you can take action and reduce your attack surface. Data Loss Do you know which files are being copied out of your cloud environment, by whom, and to where? Read the news headlines on any given day, and you ll see yet another company fall victim to data loss. Healthcare

4 Our lightweight, cloud-native design takes the hassle out of staying protected. o p Deep OS Auditing Make fact-based judgments by examining the trail of logins, processes, network activity, and file changes fed from the operating system and enhanced with our backend intelligence. Behavior-based Intrusion Detection Build up your protection against zero-day attacks with host-level intrusion detection based on behavior changes, not a static signature list. w c Customizable Alerts Create customized alerts around your unique environment. Get notified when an event takes place and respond knowing who, what, when, and where. File Integrity Monitoring Our event-driven, real-time file integrity monitoring allows you to notice changes on key files more quickly, and at a lower system resource cost than previously used techniques. b DVR Capabilities Record, zoom-in, and play back any user s actions at any point in time, even if the machine no longer exists, using our TTY timeline. g DevOps Enabled Deployment Easily deploy agents and improve security coverage with popular configuration management platforms such as Chef, Puppet, and Ansible. Purpose-Built for EC2 Environments Threat Stack arms AWS customers with unique and unparalleled visibility into the processes, users, and network activity within your infrastructure so you can know: Where the security gaps are in your coverage so you can take action to reduce your attack surface. What a user did on your network and across jump hosts with source and destination port tracking. What alerts are highest priority utilizing AWS tags to fit your workflow. What happened on current (and transient) AWS instances for complete coverage across your AWS infrastructure. Threat Stack provides the ultimate flexibility when it comes to deployment. Since Threat Stack is platform agnostic, our agents can run in any Linux environment, whether its onpremise, private cloud, hybrid cloud, or across multiple public cloud service providers such as AWS, Rackspace, Google s cloud platform, IBM s SoftLayer, or Microsoft Azure.

5 Achieving HIPAA Compliance with Threat Stack One tricky requirement when securing healthcare data is that while PII must be protected, security solutions can t look at the data itself. This means healthcare companies require a solution that does not need direct access to the data to ensure its security. Threat Stack s unique solution is designed to do just this. Because Threat Stack s agent lives in your Linux operating system, it does not run arbitrary commands, open files (aside from standard required Linux system files), look at network traffic, or create file hashes. Achieving compliance with Threat Stack is fast and easy. Threat Stack provides many powerful tools that help healthcare companies meet HIPAA compliance requirements, including: HIPAA (b) Audit Controls Implement hardware, software, and/or procedural mechanisms that record and examine activity in electronic healthcare information systems. Threat Stack enables you to comply with this control, as it audits data not only on your server but at the kernel level, too. This means: Threat Stack not only identifies when a file with PII is accessed but which process accessed it. Threat Stack pinpoints when PII is copied off the system and who did it. Threat Stack audits and uniquely identifies user access to servers, logins, logoffs, login failures, and commands a user has run after login as well as processes the user has left to run on the server. HIPAA (e)(1) Transmission Security Implement technical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to electronic protected health information that is being transmitted over an electronic communications network. Threat Stack enables you to comply with this control by: Alerting you when insecure protocols get used on the server where the data is located. Today s top healthcare companies rely on Threat Stack to secure their cloud environments. The only cloud-native continuous security monitoring solution that provides instant visibility and automatically responds to changes in your environment, Threat Stack provides the coverage needed to run secure and compliant, without sacrificing speed and efficiency.
