What is the password policy for HIPAA?

HIPAA requires that PHI remains secure both at rest and in transit. That means PHI must be protected while sitting on workstations and servers, and encrypted each time your sent email crosses the Internet or other insecure networks.

Does HIPAA require password expiration?

There is no further guidance about HIPAA password requirements. The reason why HIPAA is not more specific about passwords is to ensure legislation does not need to be updated every time there is a change in password and security best practices.
