What if your health care organization could see who was accessing protected information—every hour of every day—without conducting slow, tedious, resource-draining manual log reviews that capture incomplete information at best? And what if you could receive real-time alerts of anomalous behavior—the type of behavior most likely to precede breaches of privacy?
With this type of continuous monitoring—which would let you know exactly who did what, when, and why—you would be able to:
- Deter fraud and abuse by holding users accountable for their actions.
- Protect your brand by mitigating damage caused by improper data leaks, breaches, and disclosures.
- Comply with the monitoring aspects of HIPAA, PCI-DSS, various state and local privacy regulations, and Accounting of Disclosure requirements.
- Improve internal audit effectiveness by alerting on suspicious user behavior and providing full visibility across multiple systems.
- Enforce corporate security and data protection policies by casting a bright light on security breaches and exceptions.

| The Problem with Logs |
|
The problem with logs is simple: They leave gaping holes in the data collected. For example, they omit these critical pieces of information:
- Record and field-level data
- Read-only actions
- Hidden, hard to correlate data
Fortunately, technology does exist that can help you overcome these challenges. It’s called Attachmate Luminet. |
Stop Painful Privacy Violations with Luminet
Attachmate Luminet software works to identify misuse and curtail privacy violations by seeing, recording, and analyzing user activity across all your applications. Designed to detect and prevent a range of abuses, Luminet makes it possible for you to:
- Gain 100% visibility into user activity
Luminet captures and records a real-time, over-the-shoulder view of user activity on enterprise applications, giving you an accurate picture of who did what, when, and why. You can search and replay this recorded activity at any time—without slowing system performance or installing agents on the desktop.
- Complete the audit trail
Luminet captures all specified user activity 24x7x365 and sends alerts on suspicious behavior. Regardless of whether the correct rule is in place at the time of an incident, post-event replay enables auditing and forensic investigation at a later time. The information captured by Luminet, which includes a date/time signature, can be reliably used in a court of law.
- Search data across different platforms, including legacy applications
Luminet tracks user activity across all your major platforms, including mainframe, iSeries, web, and client/server applications. This unique capability enables you to use a single query to instantly search for a specific value displayed across any user screen on multiple platforms and applications. In other words, you can track a process that starts on an iSeries application, moves to a client server application, and then ends up in a web-based application.
- Enable user-behavior profiling at the application level
Luminet is the only solution available today that analyzes user activity at the application level rather than the database level. Using business rules and weighted scores that you’ve defined, Luminet tracks all user keystrokes and the flow of screens accessed by the user, detecting the relevant business processes as well as any field values that are accessed or updated. Based on this information, Luminet generates real-time alerts related to questionable behavior.
- Support privacy reporting and Accounting of Disclosure requirements
Luminet can capture and correlate all cross-channel activity and log data, making it an invaluable player in your privacy reporting and compliance efforts. More specifically, it helps you respond quickly to Accounting of Disclosure requests. With Luminet, you can document access to patient data and medical records across your organization at the click of a button. This reporting best practice means that with Luminet in place, you can document over time who had access to individual ePHI in minutes, not months.
Ultimately, you can use Luminet to obtain legally actionable forensic evidence—as it happens or later, after the fact. With this evidence, you can take informed action and deter future breaches of patient trust.
