Beyond Compliance.
True Security.

HIPAA violations don't just fine companies. They name the executives behind them.

We pair legal clarity with hands-on technical work so your name never shows up in an OCR settlement. Run the assessment, see where the gaps are, and close them before a regulator gets there first.

Software for the day-to-day compliance work. Advisory when you need an expert judgment call. Most clients start with one and add the other later.

THE PERSONAL RISKS YOU'RE CARRYING

Three Threats That Put Your Name on the Line

47%

Personal Claim Denials

Cyber insurers are going back and denying claims when executives can't show they were actively overseeing compliance. If a breach happens and there's no paper trail of your involvement in the security program, the cost can land on you personally. Your cyber policy won't cover it.

90 days

Attestation Deadlines

Your EHR vendor, clearinghouse, and cloud providers require security attestations that you personally have to sign. Miss the deadline and you don't just risk a service pause. Regulators later notice your signature isn't on documents they expect to see.

Named in Enforcement

OCR enforcement actions have tripled since 2022 and now algorithmically target organizations under 500 employees. When OCR investigates, they look for evidence that leadership was personally engaged in compliance. Absence of that evidence makes executives individually liable.

FROM THE FOUNDER

"I spent years watching organizations treat compliance as a checkbox exercise, then scramble the day a breach put real names on real enforcement actions. That gap between what the law expects and what the tech actually does is where the damage happens."

Axiom Risk Group exists to close that gap. We pull legal clarity and hands-on technical work into one program, so the compliance you do actually lowers your risk and isn't just there to calm your nerves.
