ID management has become crucial to fighting cybercrime as cloud computing and the internet change the nature of access and security, according to an article on the Healthcare IT News website.
Security professionals must focus on managing the identities of every user, said John Houston, vice president of information security and privacy at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
“The concept of perimeter is changing due to the internet and cloud computing,” Houston said in the article. “Identity is the new perimeter.”
The most important thing security professionals can do is maintain control over who has access to the hospital’s systems. A strong defense strategy begins there.
