Many hospitals across the country, including my former employer, are using palm scanning technology for registration “verification.” I set up the system, and I can tell you that one week after the system was installed and testing complete, a “government agency” showed up at our datacenter to install a secured server rack full of servers and switches. We were instructed that no one had access to the rack, period.
This is growing.
“a government agency showed up at our datacenter to install a secured server rack “
For what purpose?
Is this HIPAA related, or because they have access to drugs, or what?
