Clarify Ownership, Close the Gaps, Stay Ahead of the NYS Hospital Cybersecurity Rule.
Many requirements in the NYS Department of Health Hospital Cybersecurity Regulation extend beyond traditional cybersecurity responsibilities. Our Compliance Awareness Checklist was created to help hospital leadership identify obligations across information governance, risk assessment, vendor oversight, documentation, and reporting.
The Problem
Most hospitals focus on cybersecurity controls, but major compliance gaps often exist outside the information security program. This checklist helps clarify the full scope of obligations and identify overlooked areas.
What’s Included
- Governance and leadership responsibilities
- Nonpublic Information (NPI) scope
- Risk assessment requirements
- Information lifecycle and retention
- Vendor management requirements
- Documentation and evidence expectations
- Cross-functional ownership considerations
Who This Is For
- Executive Leadership: oversight and accountability clarity
- Compliance & Privacy: broader regulatory obligations
- Security Teams: alignment of technical controls with compliance scope
- Information Governance: lifecycle, retention, classification, disposition
Identify gaps, clarify ownership, uncover overlooked requirements.
Why Work With Us?
Bernstein Data helps organizations identify where regulated information actually resides, define governance responsibilities, and operationalize compliance across teams. In one recent analysis of a major hospital system, we uncovered 40k files of sensitive information sitting outside clinical systems. This checklist helps you identify where your gaps may be hiding.
