21. How will patient data be secured?

The Data Exchange Framework (DxF) is not a technology, but instead rules of the road for how organizations will provide Access to and Exchange Health and Social Services information (HSSI). HSSI will not reside on any state DxF system. The Privacy Standards and Security Safeguards Policy and Procedure describes the minimum privacy and security safeguards required by the DxF for Participants to implement. These Policies and Procedures can be found on the Policies and Procedures section of the DxF website.
