Data collected and stored for use in healthcare applications has a duality that makes it incredibly challenging for an IT department. While health records, digital x-rays and pharmaceutical information must be available at all times to facilitate proper care, the sensitivity of personal health information requires an incredibly high degree of security. Couple that with the fact that medical records have long retention periods, storing data for healthcare can be difficult and expensive if not done correctly.
