I spend some time in Montreal and I need to get certified.
I am not new to this, but never got the certifications.
Mainly done related work. Have a LL.M. with the focus
forensics/risk management and done this for 10 yrs.

So, where in Montreal can you do the CISSP etc?

Some useful training links for anyone interested...

http://www.trainforhipaa.com/certification.html

In the UK we have 7799 requirements coming into force for the health
industry, has anyone got any references for a comparison?

Cheers

Nestor:

Since HIPAA is a federal law with serious consequences for
non-compliance,
there certainly is a market for experts and consultants.  However, given
that the first part of the law went into effect last April, most mid- to
large-sized healthcare institutions lined up HIPAA consultants long ago.
Most of the major IT consulting firms have HIPAA security expertise,
which
includes system analysis, penetration testing, training, etc.  There may
still be opportunities to work with small providers such as individual
physician practices, and maybe even some startups.

If you're looking for a general resource on HIPAA, a good starting point
is
HIPAASource, at http://www.himss.org/hipaasource/hipaasource.asp, and
HIPAAdvisory, at http://www.hipaadvisory.com/.  Please note that as a
HIPAA
and healthcare security consultant, you'll be competing with many
well-established firms with years of experience in the field.

Good luck...

=====================================


Hello all,

I'm considering opening a security consulting firm specializing in
helping
secure medical companies and complying with government security
regulations
(i.e. HIPAA). My questions are a) is there considerately enough of a
market
to mandate such a specialization and b) does anyone have any experience
servicing such a niche market and if so are there any best practices,
information resources, etc. that can help me create a plan that is
comprehensive enough for medical practitioners to understand the
benefits of

securing their systems. Ideally I plan to target small to medium sized
institutions that don't staff full time IT personnel. Many thanks to
your
replies.
