HI Flying - Preparing for Security Challenges in the Year 2020
Protecting sensitive data and preventing data breaches of the patient and patient transfer records is an essential agenda for the year 2020.

HI Flying has a strong, clearly defined IT and data governance standards that identify the required controls to store, protect, and securely transmit data and expecting the same control expectations of our affiliated service providers.

Agenda for 2020

Continue to focus on skill development opportunities for the team, particularly on emerging technologies, intelligent automation, continuous integration tools, and approaches to auditing development operations.

Expand our team's leadership involvement in professional learning platforms

Work to further improve our integrated auditing approach and data analytics expanded testing initiatives.

How does HI Flying protect our data privacy and keep our information safe?

Vault our passwords, shred mail with personal information, conscientiously manage my social media presence, continuously review financial transactions on accounts for any irregularities.

Security-related Matters- From the Director's Desk

As a discipline, Information security has come a long way. Security practices have become more sophisticated over time. The traditionally emphasized domains such as physical security appear to be well under control, or perhaps their importance has declined due to the virtualization of today's information system.

Thirty years ago, when HI Flying started operations, the information systems had recognizable boundaries, and it was easy to determine if the moats are filled with water. The bridges were pulled up to secure the castle. Not so anymore.

Information security over the last many years has struggled on shaky grounds. Personal computers, networks, the internet, big data, and artificial intelligence (AI) are some of the progressive developments that have kept information security tiptoeing around numerous unprecedented challenges.

Demands from new generations of users, as in the use of smartphones, and a shift toward greater efficiency- as in cloud sourcing - have pushed systems to do more and with quick turnaround time.

We are moving towards a paperless communication. Documents like checks, bank statements, annual reports, and proxy statements are no longer physically visible; instead, most documents are delivered through the Web.

The three main objectives of information systems are Functionality
Availability
Security

Availability has gained considerable ground. In the past, if a system is not available for some time, only a few users may get affected. Now in the connected world, most systems are expected to be accessible almost all the time.

The new generation is networked, and wireless systems mean higher risk to security, whether we are aware or not. But security systems for new scenarios are not very easy. They require creativity and innovation backed by research in security technology to meet the challenges of new known vulnerabilities and unidentified blind spots.

The foremost pressure on security solutions is in keeping the costs of security low while not jeopardizing system availability and functionality.

It is a known fact that the ultimate responsibility for security rests with the entity that owns or controls the system.

Third parties are essential in the life of an entity. Still, the choice of engaging them comes with the obligation of managing risks and vulnerabilities that third parties knowingly or otherwise bring to the entity.

Whether it is cloud services from a global leader in cloud solutions or other such services - we need to ensure that our enterprise is safe. The answer to this is best determined by us, and the control of the same lies with our company.

Small things make a big difference.
Whether it is a customer or a vendor who provides services or supplies, their association with the entity is bonded in what data they share and how they share and what access rights are granted to them.

In our Medevac and Healthcare industry, patient data is accessible to patients, medical insurance providers, physicians, and hospital administrators. These include data generated throughout the entire process, from making an appointment with a physician to sharing results of tests to diagnosis and treatment of the disease. Managing relationships intertwined with virtual access to all involved in providing healthcare - including those who work with patient billing is essential, and security questions should be addressed amongst other aspirations regarding interconnected systems.

We believe that the security obligation cannot be fulfilled by merely outsourcing security services. Outsourcing a security service does not mean that the entity can transfer the responsibility of being secure to anyone else; that responsibility remains with us.

One cannot be blindsided by the comfort with and assurance from service providers, many of whom are formidable enterprises with solid reputations for helping their customers stay secure. However, a wrong step on the customer's part may be as simple as not properly configuring the firewall that guards their data residing with the provider. No matter where the data and the information processes go, the company that owns them must take charge of providing security of such resources satisfactorily.

Farming out security solutions is not the same thing as delivering the overarching responsibility of risk management. An in-depth understanding of what its entity's full risk spectrum - is something our company understands.

The secure CRM Software at HI Flying

A clear sign of the understanding that software may not be bulletproof comes from the renewed interest in inviting external parties - researchers, hackers, and engineers to locate vulnerabilities in our organization's code. The organization provides access to the code and offers incentives wherein the size of the reward is aligned with the severity of the vulnerability identified. Inviting outsiders to unearth your software's weaknesses is a risk, but the payoff could be significant. The organization may not have the right skill set, knowledge of the hacker's motives and tools, or sufficient resources to pursue such moves. Only an outsider can do it. And the cost is proportionate to risk identified, so the tactics are cost-effective. Ultimately, the value of this initiative lies in how quickly our company acts on the vulnerabilities disclosed.

Humans are the dominant source of Security compromises.

Over the years, we have realized that Humans working in an organization are the dominant source of security compromises. No matter how strong the security measures, compromises invariably happens. Technology only facilitates; it is the humans who do the damage. Despite all the laws, regulations, codes of conduct, enforcement actions, and punishments, wrongdoing has been around and will continue to persist. If anything, wrongdoing has been recognized as a norm rather than an exception.

Human tendencies are etching on a coin; people cannot change their character easily, at least in the short run.

According to one fraud model, a person's disposition - tendencies, attitudes, propensities, habits reflect the person's virtues, and depending on the disposition, the person may be self-regarding or other-regarding in nature. Influential managers of self regarding nature are more vulnerable to the temptations of compromising their moral resolve. As a result, a self regarding disposition can be considered a red flag in detecting or preventing a crime.

Even organizations with unlimited resources for security are still at the mercy of the weakest link in their chain - the human element. In the year 2013, Edward Snowden leaked classified information from the US National Security Agency (NSA). While these are extreme cases of human conduct failure, many others likely happen daily and are committed by ordinary office people who are tech-savvy and serve in sensitive areas of information systems.

In an elaborate design of computer security, the one moving target is the human being. It would be easy to dismiss the cases noted as aberrations because the actors in such cases are sociopaths. If accepted as a valid generalization, this would also result in refusal to recognize that at the center of such breaches, there are one or more humans who helped stage the crime.

Regardless of categorization, the fact remains that humans are the primary trigger in the collapse of security. Knowing this character deep down is probably the only remedy.

Answers to human frailty remain obscure, and often, the search for solutions is considered fruitless.

How do you measure the disposition of key employees? How do you assess the identified dispositional characteristics? Do you promote known managers from within to trusted and critical roles, or do you recruit so-called trusted people from outside the organization?

The answer is complicated and needs a lot more research. However, in the long run, putting more weight on the human side of wrongdoing will help detect or prevent security breaches.

At HI Flying - we emphasis on

Knowing the individual who inherits responsibility for security risk Understanding how well the individual will cope when it is time to deliver.

It is easy to say that existing controls should be strengthened, and new ones should be built.
However, it is never really is any certainty that security objectives will be fully achieved.
Due to challenges in deciphering human nature, the progress on knowing how the human link breaks down has been slow. More recently, there has been a higher degree of interest in uncovering ways to address why people indulge in wrongdoing and what can be done to minimize the impact of such tendencies.
It would be easy to say that human nature is unfathomable, and even if it was not, the tools and techniques to put such knowledge to use do not exist. Therefore, our reliance is always on enforcement.
