Emergency Access to Health Information during COVID-19

During the COVID-19 response or a long-term disaster, workforce access security needs may change based on work reassignments. These changes require new levels of access in one or more units, facilities, or for those working from remote locations. An emergency access “Break the Glass” (BtG) process should be part of your emergency operations or disaster recovery plan including exercising it on a regular basis to work out a workflow or technical issues. Download this guide for your identity access management (IAM), enterprise risk, legal, and operations teams to help you design a “break the glass” process which can provide flexible secure access to critical software applications.
