Email, for as often as it is used, is not the safest channel for transmitting sensitive material.
"The security issues around email – or rather the complete lack of security in the protocol – has been well understood for decades," wrote security researcher Adam Caudill in a recent personal blog post. "Yet, in all those years of existence, all we – as those that care about security – have managed to do is glue ineffective solutions on it."
This is why the healthcare industry still requires fax machines to be in use when distributing patient records and other similar files. While faxing is still a necessary technology, it suffers from the dated hardware that it has long been restricted to. But thanks to cloud servers, cloud-based fax has found new life as a viable connection.
By implementing cloud-based fax into healthcare environments, physicians will not only have access to traditional fax capabilities, but they will be able to also transmit and receive messages through a mobile app. This allows organizations to remain compliant while enjoying modern functionality.
