Tabletop exercise

HIPAA Security & Privacy Rules tabletop exercise

Administrative, physical and technical safeguards for PHI.

We can run the HIPAA Security & Privacy Rules exercise for your team, or set you up as a facilitator to run it yourself.

What the room works through

HIPAA Security Rule and Privacy Rule safeguards (45 CFR Parts 160, 164)

US covered entity or business associate handling PHI/ePHI. Use CFR refs such as 164.308(a)(1)(i) and domains Administrative, Physical, Technical, Organisational, Privacy.

Clauses
32
Rounds
10 across two stages
Room size
Up to 20 participants

Stage 1 — assess

Tables rate control maturity, agree the risk that matters for the room, then face an audit round where a peer table challenges the call. Every decision is logged against a HIPAA Security & Privacy Rules clause.

Stage 2 — survive

Incidents and complications hit the tables: crisis injects, budget cuts and a concealed insider. Controls bought in Stage 1 pay out — or the gap shows.

What you take away

  • Clause-by-clause coverage across HIPAA Security & Privacy Rules
  • A gap list ranked by what the room could not defend
  • Per-table divergence, so you can see where opinion split
  • Word and CSV exports plus a drafted findings narrative
