Frequently asked questions

About HIPAA and CJIS compliance

What does HIPAA compliance mean for IT?

HIPAA requires organizations that handle protected health information to keep it confidential, accurate and available. On the technology side, that means safeguards like encryption, access controls, unique logins, audit logs, secure backups and regular risk assessments.

Does my practice need to be HIPAA compliant?

If your practice creates, stores or shares patient health information, or you’re a vendor that handles it for a healthcare provider, HIPAA almost certainly applies to you. A free assessment will show where you stand.

Will Gigabits sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA)?

Yes. Gigabits has its own Business Associate Agreement (BAA) ready to sign. HIPAA requires a BAA with any IT provider that may access protected health information, so we take care of it before we start working on your systems.

What is CJIS compliance?

CJIS compliance means following the FBI’s Criminal Justice Information Services Security Policy. It sets requirements for how agencies and their vendors protect criminal justice information, including authentication, encryption, access control, logging and training.

Who needs to be CJIS compliant?

Any organization that accesses criminal justice information, such as police and sheriff’s departments, courts, 911 centers and probation offices, plus the IT vendors and contractors that work on their systems.

Is Gigabits HIPAA and CJIS compliant?

Yes. Gigabits is both CJIS and HIPAA compliant, and we help other organizations meet and maintain compliance.

Can you make us fully compliant?

We handle the technology side: assessments, technical safeguards, monitoring, documentation support and staff security training. Full compliance also includes policies and procedures your organization owns, so we work alongside your compliance officer or office manager to cover everything.

Do you help organizations outside the Savannah area?

Yes. Most compliance work can be done remotely, so we support organizations anywhere in the U.S. Practices and agencies around Pooler and Savannah can also get in-person help from our local team.
