“Email encryption has become a common practice in ensuring the security of patient information and meeting the federal regulations set by HIPAA and HITECH”
ZixCorp will provide Orlando Health with email encryption for 10,000 Orlando Health users through ZixGateway™ (formerly ZixVPM®). Orlando Health will be able to secure protected health information (PHI) and alleviate security and compliance burdens on employees.

"Email encryption has become a common practice in ensuring the security of patient information and meeting the federal regulations set by HIPAA and HITECH," said Stephen Stallard, Corporate Director of Information Security at Orlando Health. "As the market leader, ZixCorp sets the standard and was the intelligent choice. ZixCorp's experience with healthcare customers only increased our confidence in its proven solution."
