The HIPAA Security Rule has remained largely unchanged for over 15 years. In the final days of the Biden Administration, the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) issued a proposed rule to significantly revise and modernize the Security Rule. This update responds to growing cybersecurity threats—such as ransomware, hacking, and other forms of data breaches—and aims to align compliance standards with current technological realities. The proposed changes impose more stringent and specific requirements on covered entities and business associates to safeguard electronic protected health information (ePHI).
