Health IT

Join Raj for a complete regulatory overview including:

- HIPAA Omnibus Update
- FTC Health Breach Rule
- Top 5 reasons organizations FAIL Security Assessments
- Case Studies
- Guidance
- Success Stories

The HITECH Act created new categories of business associates that included health information organizations (HIO), these days referred to as HIEs, and health insurance exchanges (HIX). OCR is preparing to make sure these business associates follow the HIPAA rules.

The omnibus rule compliance date is rapidly approaching. If you’re an HIE or an HIX, it’s time to make sure all of those policies are in place, the workforce is trained and all of those other tasks that pave the road to HIPAA compliance. This also includes, among other things, reaching out to all of your covered entity customers and negotiating that business associate agreement, testing security incident response plans and that business continuity plan. You will walk away with a solid understanding of the not-so-new privacy and security requirements and practical information you can use to ramp up your compliance efforts in preparation for the September 23, 2013 omnibus rule compliance deadline.

Few industries are exposed to the kind of regulation rigor that exists today in healthcare. HIPAA places tight regulations on electronic patient health information (ePHI), and as more data is digitally managed, providers have experience increasing costs and risks associated with ePHI management. The emergence of community clouds in the healthcare industry have provided a more sustainable and scalable model . With consumers demanding greater responsiveness and transparency from their providers and suppliers, there is much that businesses in other sectors can learn from the success of healthcare community clouds. We will showcase a case study of King’s Daughters Medical as an example of one company’s experience and the value they have realized.

Join this webinar to:
- Discover the risks, vulnerabilities, and challenges facing providers who must be HIPAA-compliant.
- Learn the role that secure, cloud-based computing can play in helping healthcare organizations.
- Understand how Dell Cloud Dedicated and community cloud strategies can help your business

Join us for an interactive webinar to learn about the new APEX 2800 MXM card, for HP Gen8 blade servers. In this webinar we will review:

- benefits of APEX as a standalone solution, as well as in conjunction with GPU support, as recently announced by VMware for the Horizon View environment

- how APEX provides the best end-to-end user experience when coupled with GPU (vSGA and vDGA) and PCoIP zero clients, presented by PCoIP experts

- tools available to easily demonstrate the value of the APEX solution in your environment

Healthcare has more “Big Data” than virtually any other industry, and more complex Big Data than most. Physicians, hospitals, pharmaceuticals, insurance companies and all of their components, spin-offs and combinations draw on business systems, financial records, clinical data, human resources, practice management software, scheduling products and much more, and do so from a bewildering number of operating systems written in languages new and old, and obscure and commonplace. Moreover, healthcare care data have another distinction: accuracy is a matter of life and data. Integrating, combining, parsing and interpreting these data and where they run is perhaps the most important IT challenge of the 21st century. We have some suggestions on how to manage and maximize.

By not losing sight of our heritage of High Performance Wi-Fi Architectures, Xirrus has engineered not just a new AP, but a new class of Wireless Access device. While other vendors chased market share with low cost, low end solutions, Xirrus waited until the technology was ready to offer an economical solution, without compromising on performance or services. What we did was design a solution that not only maintains software configurable radios, the full suites of Array services, Application control at the edge and IDS/IPS, but we also added 802.3af PoE and even cloud management services, and all at a price that is equal to or even below other vendors ‘consumer grade’ AP pricing.

If you are considering upgrading your wireless and want to know what’s really available in a cost effective device, join us for an introduction and even a test drive of the new class of wireless access devices.

Hear from Mike Gelhar, System Engineer at Univita Health about how simple the BC/DR solution is now that they are using Zerto Virtual Replication.

Organizations virtualize their mission critical applications to increase flexibility and agility while reducing costs. However, once the BC/DR plan is implemented, many of the benefits of virtualization are lost. Univita Health was leveraging two tools to protect their virtualized mission critical applications which made meeting their required annual testing obligations challenging. Additionally, the coordination and preparation of the environment was complex and took a significant amount of effort to manage and maintain.

With Zerto Virtual Replication, BC/DR was dramatically simplified. Protecting an application took a couple of clicks. Preparing the entire environment for a test went from several weeks to one day. Today, they are protecting their environment and are able to easily meet their obligations for testing and protection while saving on their maintenance and management costs.

Zerto Virtual Replication delivers:
•Simplified testing, management and maintenance
•Aggressive RTO and RPO
•Unprecedented scalability
•Reduced costs with no hardware dependencies

There are key pressures driving IT today: budget, security threats, consumerization of IT, end-user needs and expectations. In response, IT is turning to virtualization to relieve these pressures but which is the best solution?

Join this webinar to learn which technology: VDI, RDS or both that you should turn to for help. This presentation will cover use cases to help determine best fit, how the addition of the PCoIP protocol to RDS can improve performance, and a first hand account of how and why Gypsum Management and Supply, a national distributor of construction supplies, implemented a desktop virtualization solution replacing aging PCs.

About the Presenter:
Mike Fodor is a customer-focused product management professional with over 20 years of experience in technology, six of which have spent in the desktop virtualization space. Mike began his career in Southern California as a technology manager for Walt Disney Feature Animation.  He has spent more than a decade in Silicon Valley, holding management posts at NetIQ, Peoplesoft and Pano Logic before joining Teradici.

Xirrus has kicked off 2013 with a world tour to promote several significant additions to our product lineup. We have extended our high performance XR Array product line with a new cost effective, yet full performance Access Point. True to our heritage of creating solutions that enable wired-like performance from wireless networks, this new solution delivers application-level control and RF optimization like no other AP on the market. In addition, it is supported by our new cloud-based management and provisioning that greatly simplifies the activation and ongoing operation of Xirrus wireless networks while reducing the resource and CAPEX requirements on your IT department.

What you will learn:
- How to provide a cost effective wireless solution with uncompromised features and performance
- How to deliver a wireless solutions that can scale from low to ultra-high user densities
- How to deliver improved wireless user experience prioritizing critical over recreational applications
- How cloud-enabled activation can speed deployment with zero touch provisioning

BYOD is no longer a consideration, it’s a reality. Every day over 2 million new wireless devices are being activated and these devices will show up on you network. And while most wireless vendors are talking about the potential security risks, which are considerable, almost no one is discussing the impact the sheer numbers of devices will have on your networks performance.

A recent Gartner study did and stated that ‘By 2015, 80% of newly installed wireless networks will be obsolete because of a lack of proper planning’. Many administrators still designing for coverage, when capacity limits are the true Achilles heel of wireless deployments. This session will discuss the varied client types and their capabilities, best practices to address growing device densities and how both impact overall network performance. IT administrator looking at a BYOD deployment or even just a wireless upgrade will gain valuable insight from this presentation.
