Map firewall controls, evidence, and gaps to HIPAA Security Rule safeguards for ePHI. Use when assessing segmentation, access and audit controls, transmission security, risk management, BAA or vendor access, OCR evidence, 45 CFR 164.312, or “HIPPA.” Parse raw configs first.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

HIPAA Security Rule compliance is assessed for the covered entity or business associate, the electronic protected health information (ePHI) it creates, receives, maintains, or transmits, and the administrative, physical, and technical safeguards used to protect that ePHI. …

How to install
mdr add mechubsec/fwskillsshare/hipaa-ngfw-compliance@sha256:8b8914c1d7172f90The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
