The Certified Healthcare Security Officer (CHSO) Course Series Bundle (Chapters 1–10) is an advanced training program designed for individuals who are responsible for leading, managing, or advising on HIPAA Security compliance within healthcare environments.

Unlike introductory HIPAA Security or HIPAA Privacy & Security courses—which focus on awareness and basic compliance—the CHSO program is built for decision-makers and security leaders. It goes beyond "what the rule says" to explain how HIPAA Security is operationalized, governed, monitored, and sustained across real-world healthcare and healthcare-supporting organizations.

Course Curriculum:

The program delivers a structured, chapter-based curriculum aligned directly to the HIPAA Security Rule safeguard framework:

Administrative Safeguards

  • Security governance and assigned security responsibility

  • Risk analysis and risk management

  • Workforce security and access management
