DeltaSouth designed, installed and manages the secure internal WiFi at the Knox County Health Department.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) has very specific requirements that must be met for compliance. In support of a new electronic medical records initiative, the KCHD needed its providers (doctors, nurses, etc) to be able to securely access patient records. DeltaSouth designed and deployed a secure wireless network which covers 2 floors of the KCHD. It is physically separated from all other network traffic at the facility. Only authorized devices gain access to the network. Users utilize 2-factor authentication and data is protected using the highest forms of encryption while in transit and at rest.
