Protecting your files with encryption is a core concept in data and information security, and thus its a powerful way to protect your PII. It involves transforming data or information into code that requires a digital key to access it in its original, unencrypted format.
To fulfill this requirement, HHS published what are commonly known as the HIPAA Privacy Rule and the HIPAA Security Rule. The Privacy Rule, or Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information, establishes national standards for the protection of certain health information.
Secure Sensitive PII in a locked desk drawer, file cabinet, or similar locked enclosure when not in use. When using Sensitive PII, keep it in an area where access is controlled and limited to persons with an official need to know. Avoid faxing Sensitive PII, if at all possible.

Do not place documents containing PHI in trash bins. Promptly shred documents containing PHI when no longer needed, in ance with College procedures.
Data masking is a technique used to protect vulnerable PII while retaining some of its usefulness. Masking consists of somehow changing the actual PII in the database, either by rearranging data or replacing it entirely with synthetic data.
