Secure storage and retrieval process for healthcare data

1. Create a security plan for a medium sized health care facility. In your security plan, evaluate how you would approach security threats from both inside and outside the organization. Be sure that you address the following items in your security plan:
   1. physical and administrative safeguards: employee education, health information archival and retrieval systems, disaster recovery, storage media
   2. access safeguards: authentication, password management
   3. network safeguards: cloud computing, firewalls, encryption / decryption and using mobile devices to deliver healthcare
2. Critique the plan you have written, identifying its strengths, elements that were not covered in the text, and any additional omissions or weaknesses of the plan.
