Re: HIPAA Security Risk Assessment/Analysis Software

[Bill Warren]

Georgia/Mellisa,

There is a new product out there that sounds like what you are looking for. I have suggested this software to other members on this list directly. A company called "Relational Security" makes "RSAM", which is geared towards customizing and conducting your own assessment. I have worked with it in a couple of clients, and have really liked the interface, analysis, and reporting.  It seems like a pretty comprehensive product with lots of nice features and reports. Mostly we have enjoyed the simplicity of the implementation and assessment, and it seems geared towards ongoing self-assessment....

 

RSAM is new, and their methodology was quite adaptable to the situations I have seen it in. Mostly I have been happy with the positive reactions from my clients. I hesitated to post something on the board with my experience in this... but seems like a lot of people are looking for this type of product. Anyway, they have a web site with some info about RSAM - www.relsec.com.

 

Hope this helps, :)

Bill Warren

Might I suggest that any suggestions for software be posted to the list
in general, so we don't go through hundreds of "me too" messages?
