3 HOW HITRUST Got Interest How HITRUST Got Interest in Digital Identities 3 © 2012 HITRUST Identity Services. All rights reserved Approached in April 2009 by organizations adopting CSF indicating that complaints specific to information security were increasing Specifically around authentication and access controls Meeting in Washington DC Surveys confirmed that implementation of stronger authentication (deemed appropriate based on risk) did significantly decrease user satisfaction with systems Password complexity Password refresh Multifactor authentication Created a program to address user satisfaction issues Collaborated with a number of organizations from across the nation on development of requirements Partnered with Baylor Health Care System and Dallas County Medical Society to make it a reality and bring it to market Strong technology partnership with Computer Associates, Gemalto and others

4 What problems are we trying to solve? 4 Growing dissatisfaction among healthcare professionals coinciding with the increasing number of badges, tokens, usernames and passwords Healthcare organizations are struggling with the inefficiencies, complexities and costs of token and authentication mechanisms © 2012 HITRUST Identity Services. All rights reserved

5 Multiple Perspectives on the situation 5 Physicians Payers I pay the full cost of registration, ID and card issuance and password maintenance process that is almost identical as every other organization I service nearly the same providers as everyone else It seems like all my help desk does is reset passwords and call physicians to provide information they should already have access It costs me time and money to maintain access to all the services; and they are all a little different to deal with It is ridiculous that my staff and I need to have a different logon to access every different organizations we work with and sometimes multiple per organization Hospitals New compliance requirements are a moving target. I need an easy way to keep up Between my own systems, ePrescribing, payer systems, & HIEs. My physicians are asking us to make it easier for them to access our facilities and systems Implementing and maintaining token and identity management systems is costly and complex © 2012 HITRUST Identity Services.

6 End User Realities 6 Users are issued 6 - 66 user names, tokens and badges High level of dissatisfaction with authentication process that extends to users applications experience Users want a simplified authentication solution that is UNIVERSAL across information systems and organizations © 2012 HITRUST Identity Services.

7 Accepting Entity Realities 7 Increased costs Each organization is issuing and supporting IDs, tokens and badges Average costs associated with supporting PROX cards and user IDs in a healthcare organization are over $110/year in security administration 1 Greater complexity Organizations are working with an assortment of technologies and applications Technology limitations and restrictions Unique myriad of regulations and compliance requirements Decreased user satisfaction End-user frustration is increasing, coinciding with the number of user names, tokens, badges and support numbers to remember and the increasing requirements for stronger passwords and authentication as well as change frequency Reduced policy enforcement and increased risk Organizations compromise information security to accommodate end user complaints 1 Source: Gartner Research report and does not include OTP tokens © 2012 HITRUST Identity Services.

8 Accepting Entity objectives 8 Accepting Entity Objectives Implement an authentication approach that simplifies the end user experience while meeting and complying with stated information protection standards, regulations, and policies in a cost effective and manageable manner Reduce number of times a user has to login and use the simplest method possible based on risk Provide flexibility with authentication options Meet compliance requirements Provided as a service that combines technology, operations and support Pay-for-use on an annual basis © 2012 HITRUST Identity Services.
