What is the difference between an audit and a risk assessment?
A risk assessment reports the resulting residual risk after evaluation of threats to your assets and current mitigating controls, whereas an audit proves/tests that you have implemented the prescribed and asserted controls. An audit is usually conducted by an independent party after the organization. Will this make me HIPAA Compliant? Risk assessments are an essential part of your information security program and are required by HIPAA. However, a risk assessment is not designed to report compliance. Compliance can be verified by an independent audit or HIPAA compliance gap analysis. I have a vendor who manages my IT, and they assure me that they are HIPAA compliant. Do I still need a Risk Assessment? An organization can outsource services, including management of information systems, but you cannot outsource the “responsibility” for protection of your data. Organizations must have a means to verify the vendor or service providers compliance with prescribed security controls. This is typically achieved through independent audits, monitoring, and periodic vendor/provider reviews. |
