  31. Datto meets HIPAA key takeaways Secure Backups and Restores are both required ‐‐ Covered Entities and Business Associates must backup “retrievable exact copies of electronic protected health information” (CFR 164.308(7)(ii) (A)) and be able “to restore any loss of data.” (CFR 164.308(7)(ii) (B))

  32. Datto meets HIPAA key takeaways Security Requirements are in effect during emergencies ‐‐ compliance requires the “protection of thesecurity of electronic protected health information while operating in emergency mode”. (CFR 164.308(7)(ii) (C))

  33. Datto meets HIPAA key takeaways A Backup policy is not a procedure, a backup procedure is not a backup plan, a backup plan is not a contingency plan (neither is it a disaster recovery plan) - Policies, procedures and plans (CFR 164.312(b)(1)) are not interchangeable forms of documentation (CFR 164.312(b)(2)(i))is a huge part of HIPAA. “Ask me about our HIPAA Book of Evidence Tool”
