COLCHESTER, Vt., Oct. 19, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Global Works Systems, Inc., a leading provider of software and service solutions to users of premium healthcare systems, announced the release of the Global Works Enterprise Security View(tm) (ESV) for enhanced security reporting. ESV provides clients with the ability to report on security at a comprehensive level.
ESV enables effective analysis of user access rights and use of patient data in healthcare practice management systems, electronic health record databases and other registration related databases within the enterprise. The application is a component of Global Works Data Exchange(tm) software which provides an automated extraction, load and transformation (ETL) tool to seamlessly access the critical security information.
Patient health information is being consolidated and made available online now more than ever. Along with improvements in operations and patient safety, this increased availability invites risk. In order to comply with the HIPAA Privacy and Security rulings, healthcare organizations must effectively manage and monitor user access to and use of patient information across multiple applications and platforms. The challenge lies in the intersection of patients and users across the enterprise. All systems allow for management of user access and will provide some user and date/time stamping for access to information. Unfortunately, these disparate systems do not provide a standard method in which to view permissions and users' exercise of those permissions.
As a tool to help enterprises simplify, automate, and consolidate information, Global Works ESV provides a single data model and report set to manage the access their users have to the entire network. With ESV, IT Departments have one system for monitoring security access and security offices have comprehensive views of information for detecting unusual or suspicious behavior. Based on system usage statistics, the solution also provides managers with the data needed to better allocate resources internally.
