A recent press release reports, “Extreme Networks, Inc. today introduced the Information Governance Engine, an optional add-on to the ExtremeManagement™ product portfolio, enabling CISOs and CIOs to establish and maintain a clinical baseline that demonstrates compliance with HIPAA and PCI standards for their mission-critical networks. The Information Governance Engine provides an automated scored assessment that empowers IT to understand how network changes may impact compliance. The new solution is the ideal complement to Extreme’s unique security capabilities for CISOs and CIOs, particularly in the healthcare and retail industries, that are required to demonstrate and maintain compliance not only to HIPAA and PCI rules, but also their own internal rules.”

The release goes on, “Extreme’s Information Governance Engine replaces the current manual and error-prone network compliance process with a fully automated and repeatable solution capable of completing an assessment in minutes. This addition to Extreme’s product portfolio highlights the company’s focus on the technology and security needs of today’s healthcare industry and other verticals that are challenged by the increasing use of mobile and IoT devices to improve patient care.”

Key features of the Information Governance Engine include, “Automated Assessments – Delivers automated PCI, HIPAA and user-defined compliance assessments and scoring targeted at CISOs and CIOs within the healthcare space and across other verticals where the need to maintain and demonstrate data privacy and a secure infrastructure is mission critical. Measurable Analytics – Collects measurable evidence of ongoing security and compliance improvements even as networks increase in complexity with the expanded use of connected medical equipment and mobile devices. Time Savings – Replaces a lengthy, multi-day process that relies on human analysis and interpretation of data, using instead a fully automated and repeatable engine.”
