October marks the 20th anniversary of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a time when organizations worldwide emphasize the critical importance of cybersecurity. Since its inception in 2004, this month has served as a reminder that safeguarding our digital environment is a collective effort extending beyond the IT team.
At NJII, we are proud of our proactive approach to cybersecurity. Our recent HITRUST and CMS certifications cover all divisions of NJII, not just the healthcare sector, showcasing our commitment to upholding the highest standards of security and compliance organization-wide. Achieving these certifications involved rigorous audits, comprehensive policies, and the implementation of advanced controls to safeguard sensitive data across all our operations. These milestones reinforce our status as a trusted partner and demonstrate our ongoing efforts to strengthen our security posture.
In our pursuit of excellence, we have also adopted modern cybersecurity frameworks to protect our systems against evolving threats. These cutting-edge technologies work together to create a resilient and secure environment, ensuring the safety and integrity of our clients’ and partners’ data.
During Cybersecurity Awareness Month, I encourage everyone at NJII and beyond to prioritize safe online practices, stay informed, and actively participate in our security initiatives. Together, we can build a resilient organization that inspires trust and confidence.
