Security
Healthcare industry like any other industry has to adhere to security measures. The security measures flow across from regulators and insurers to patients and the public; there is a lot of pressure to determine that medical data are kept safe and confidential. In the United States, for example, the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) ensures the integrity and privacy of patient information legally consent healthcare providers. As providers turn to digital measures to access, process, share, and store data more productively and cost-effectively, networking infrastructures feature the most effective safeguards.

Data
The government ensures that the Health- care providers must safeguard the enterprise network from intruder's intent on accessing medical information on servers or disrupting services. Within the network, they need to ensure that users can retrieve only the information for which they are authorized as the security measures are also based on roles, which give access accordingly. Outside the network, they must protect communications with parties like other medical facilities, pharmacies, and insurers. A security breach anywhere can have costly consequences and erode patient confidence for which the authorization and authentication of the software comes in place requesting for login-id's and passwords to access the required information.

Wireless solutions lower networking costs and offer pervasive communications throughout a facility or campus. Wireless systems, however, support the same confidential medical and business data as wired LANs. Therefore, it is essential they deliver the same levels of security. Healthcare providers must ensure that a hacker cannot access patient records and other sensitive information via a wireless link on the LAN. They must permit only authorized personnel within the organization to access private medical or business data. They need to offer caregivers the timesaving convenience of pervasive communications without compromising security.

Patient Information Confidentiality
Patients entrust the NHS and allow the NHS to gather sensitive information relating to their health and other matters as part of their seeking treatment.They share their health problems in confidence as they have the legitimate expectation that all those working on the information given by the pateints will respect this trust,as it is the duty of all those working in the healthcare department to adhere to the HIPAA act to maintain the confidentialty of the patient's data. It is essential, if the legal requirements are to be met and the trust of patients is to be retained, that the NHS provides, and is ensured to provide, a confidential service.

Patient information is generally held under legal and ethical obligations of confidentiality. Information provided in confidence should not be used or disclosed in a form that might identify a patient without his/her consent.
