Technical safeguards do involve the hardware and software components of an information system.

What are technical safeguard?

Technical safeguards are defined in HIPAA that address access controls, data in motion, and data at rest requirements. A covered entity must implement technical policies and procedures for computing systems that maintain PHI data to restrict access to only those persons that have been granted access rights. Each user is required to have a unique user identification (ID).

This ID is used for identifying and tracking the activities of the user while accessing PHI. Audit controls must be implemented to record and provide the ability to examine PHI access and processing activity. To protect the user account from being left unattended, automatic logoff must be implemented to terminate a user’s session after a predetermined time of inactivity.
