At the Forefront of Healthcare Security & Privacy
As the rapidly evolving healthcare industry faces increasing challenges to keeping personal health information protected – including growing volumes of electronic health records, new government regulations, and a more complex IT security landscape – there is a growing need to ensure knowledgeable and credentialed security and privacy practitioners are in place to protect this sensitive information.
HCISPPs provide the frontline defense in protecting health information. Backed by (ISC)², a global not-for-profit organization that delivers the gold standard for information security certifications, the HCISPP credential confirms a practitioner’s core knowledge and experience in security and privacy controls for personal health information.
What domains are in the HCISPP CBK?
The HCISPP exam will test the candidate’s knowledge in the six domains of the (ISC)² HCISPP CBK®, which cover:
- Healthcare Industry
- Regulatory Environment
- Privacy and Security in Healthcare
- Information Governance and Risk Management
- Information Risk Assessment
- Third Party Risk Management
HCISPP candidates must have a minimum of two years of cumulative paid full-time work experience in one domain of the credential with the exception that one year of the cumulative experience must be in any combination of the first three domains in Healthcare (Healthcare Industry, Regulatory Environment in Healthcare, and Privacy & Security in Healthcare). The remaining one year of experience can be optionally in any of the remaining three HCISPP domains (Information Governance and Risk Management, Information Risk Assessment, and Third Party Risk Management), and does not have to be related to the Healthcare Industry.
