A fragmented IT, security, and compliance model unintentionally creates those gaps. Fragmentation Expands Risk Exposure Each additional vendor introduces complexity and blind spots.

For regulated businesses, outsourcing IT, cybersecurity, and compliance to separate providers often appears prudent. Each firm brings specialization.

Healthcare organizations have never faced more pressure to prove compliance—not just claim it. As we move into 2026, the HIPAA Security Risk Assessment (SRA) continues to be the foundation of compliance, enforcement, and cybersecurity readiness. But expectations around how SRAs are performed, documented, and acted upon have changed.

Small law firms are increasingly becoming prime targets for cybercriminals. Although large firms tend to draw public attention after major breaches, small law firms are just as prone to cyberattacks.
