Should Employees Use Personal Devices for Work?
Summary: Allow personal devices only for approved work, through approved apps, and when they meet your security requirements. Use company-owned devices for administration, sensitive work, or jobs that require storing large amounts of data locally.

Your Doctor May Be Using AI During Your Appointment. Is That a HIPAA Violation?
What happens when you’re in your doctor’s office? From physical examinations to simple discussions about your health, you might talk about medications, test results, symptoms, family history, and other information you probably would not share with many people.
