HIPAA session timeout rules require systems handling electronic protected health information (ePHI) to automatically log out inactive users. These rules help prevent unauthorized access, reduce data breaches, and ensure compliance with HIPAA standards.
HIPAA session timeout compliance protects patient data, reduces risks, and ensures secure workflows. Tools like Censinet RiskOps™ simplify compliance through automation and centralized monitoring.
