Cloud storage instances like Amazon Simple Storage Service, Amazon S3, have made it easier than ever before for healthcare professionals to access and share valuable patient data. While these advancements have improved customer care across providers, configuring access policies, provisioning buckets, and adhering to Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) security controls across cloud instances is difficult for security teams. There are many examples of companies that have been breached because of S3 buckets that were left unprotected.
To avoid a similar fate and prevent unauthorized access, security teams can use a security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) solution. SOAR solutions can help teams correctly set up and manage policies, permissions, and groups with access to S3 buckets.
Having systems to check that S3 buckets are properly provisioned after they are created and ongoing monitoring helps security teams stay compliant and keep patient records safe. But in a hospital setting where massive amounts of data are processed every day, security teams will benefit by automating some of the manual tasks that configuring access controls for S3 buckets requires. SOAR security solutions can help teams check and update access provisions and quickly remediate policy violations detected in your cloud environments.
