Exelegent, a technology managed services company that specializes in security and compliance, announced today a partnership with ZENEDGE, a leader in cloud-based cybersecurity solutions focused on preventing malicious cyber-attacks targeted at the healthcare sector and others. The two companies joined forces to help prepare healthcare organizations and their business associates for Phase II HIPAA Audits, recently announced by The OCR (Office for Civil Rights).
“ZENEDGE helps satisfy HIPAA’s contingency plan requirements when used as part of a complete HIPAA compliance program,” says Exelegent CEO Vasil Vykhopen. “We intend to leverage ZENEDGE cybersecurity capabilities to ensure our healthcare customers are compliant with HIPAA regulations.”
