Forward thinking organizations are making their data work for them.
Ananth Balasubramanian, vertical solutions business unit head for Commvault in Tinton Falls, N.J.: With the increased utilization and reliance of technology in healthcare, there is an exponential amount of data being created, stored and siloed. As such, data security mechanisms need to balance between providing security robust enough to safeguard protected health information while simultaneously not interfering with how that data is used to provide quality care. While much of healthcare data resides in silos, forward thinking organizations are realizing that the time is now for their data to work for them. By utilizing modern data protection techniques, many organizations are rethinking how to collect, access and store their data to improve patient care, meet compliance requirements and drive business efficiencies.
