From the Blogosphere Lost Records a Day Shows Doctors Are Blasé
Health Care Privacy Challenges
Jan. 10, 2013 07:00 AM
I always wanted to write, ‘In the USA Today, today’ in the Life section snapshots sidebar there is an interesting stat from a December 2012 Ponemon Institute study of 80 health care organizations showing that the data lost or stolen most often are our medical records at 48% and billing/insurance records at 48% followed by payment details at 24%. Multiple responses were allowed which is why the percentages break 100. What is more alarming is that over the last two years, 94% of health care organizations have been breached at least once and 45% have had 5 or more incidents! What is sad is that over half (54%) have little or no confidence that they can detect patient data loss.
 I know many of us often delay or avoid the doctors for fear that we might get diagnosed with something terrible but maybe now we’ll avoid with the notion, ‘eh, I’m healthy and I don’t want to be afflicted with identity theft disease.’ Ask your doctor about ITD – common side effects include increased heart rate, depression, headaches, loss of appetite and in some patients, bank account drainage. Why risk it? Heck, the last time my wife went to her now previous doctor and asker her about how she complies with HIPAA, the doctor didn’t even know what that was! How can that be? How can a practicing physician be unaware of HIPAA? That’s like a bank unaware of PCI or the numerous other financial regulatory requirements. But is it ‘unaware’ or ‘just don’t care.’
The primary causes of health care data breach include lost or stolen devices along with employee or 3rd party mistakes and they only learned of the breach because of an audit. Data gets moved around amongst various parties for multiple reasons it is often hard to determine who and where leaked it.
Suggestions include appointing senior security roles reporting to the board, securing mobile devices, using encryption, develop breach plans that are ready and tested, education and as more health care organizations turn to the cloud, understand and control that risk – whatever it may be.
Oh, and have a seat, we’ll be with you in a moment.

Cloud Expo 2013 East Opening Keynote by IBM

In the old world of IT, if you didn't have hardware capacity or the budget to buy more, your project was dead in the water. Budget constraints can leave some of the best, most creative and most ingenious innovations on the cutting room floor. It's a true dilemma for developers and innovators – why spend the time creating, when a project could be abandoned in a blink? That was the old world. In the new world of IT, developers rule. They have access to resources they can spin up instantly. A hybrid cloud ignites innovation and empowers developers to focus on what they need. A hybrid cloud blends the best of all worlds, public cloud, private cloud and dedicated servers to fit the needs of developers and offer the ideal environment for each app and workload without the constraints of a one-size-fits-all cloud.

Oct. 18, 2017 08:45 AM EDT Reads: 2,013 | By Elizabeth White  Most technology leaders, contemporary and from the hardware era, are reshaping their businesses to do software. They hope to capture value from emerging technologies such as IoT, SDN, and AI. Ultimately, irrespective of the vertical, it is about deriving value from independent software applications participating in an ecosystem as one comprehensive solution. In his session at @ThingsExpo, Kausik Sridhar, founder and CTO of Pulzze Systems, will discuss how given the magnitude of today's application ecosystem, tweaking existing software to stitch various components together leads to sub-optimal ...

Imagine a robot vacuum that becomes your personal assistant that knows everything and can respond to your emotions and verbal commands! Oct. 18, 2017 08:00 AM EDT Reads: 2,656 | By Liz McMillan  Enterprises are adopting Kubernetes to accelerate the development and the delivery of cloud-native applications. However, sharing a Kubernetes cluster between members of the same team can be challenging. And, sharing clusters across multiple teams is even harder.
Kubernetes offers several constructs to help implement segmentation and isolation. However, these primitives can be complex to understand and apply. As a result, it’s becoming common for enterprises to end up with several clusters. This leads to a waste of cloud resources and increased operational overhead. Oct. 18, 2017 07:30 AM EDT Reads: 1,424 | By Elizabeth White  Today most companies are adopting or evaluating container technology - Docker in particular - to speed up application deployment, drive down cost, ease management and make application delivery more flexible overall.
As with most new architectures, this dream takes significant work to become a reality. Even when you do get your application componentized enough and packaged properly, there are still challenges for DevOps teams to making the shift to continuous delivery and achieving that reduction in cost and increase in speed. Sometimes in order to reduce complexity teams compromise features ...

Whenever a new technology hits the high points of hype, everyone starts talking about it like it will solve all their business problems. Sadly, frequently without even looking at what problem they are trying to solve. Blockchain is one of those technologies. According to Gartner’s latest report on the hype cycle of emerging technologies, blockchain has just passed the peak of their hype cycle curve.
