Verifyle Partners with NBHAP to Enhance Security for Behavioral Health Data

Verifyle Partners with the National Behavioral Health Association of Providers to Enhance Data Security SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Verifyle, a leader in secure messaging, file sharing, and information exchange, has announced a new partnership with the National Behavioral Health Association of Providers (NBHAP). NBHAP is a prominent organization that unifies addiction-focused treatment programs and provides essential education and advocacy for the behavioral health and addiction treatment industries. Starting in May 2025, Verifyle will offer its advanced security solutions to all NBHAP members, ensuring the protection of sensitive patient data. "Guarding patients' personally identifiable information, especially in the context of their treatment, is of paramount importance to us," stated Pete Nielsen, President and Chief Executive Officer of NBHAP. "Our collaboration with Verifyle ensures that our members, their patients, and colleagues have a highly secure method for sharing treatment-related documents and other confidential information. Verifyle's dedication to user privacy and security aligns perfectly with our values." Healthcare data is particularly attractive to cybercriminals due to its high value compared to other types of personal information. According to the 2024 IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report, healthcare organizations incur the highest average breach costs, amounting to $10.93 million per incident, and it often takes nearly 10 months to identify and contain these breaches. This makes robust cybersecurity measures crucial in the healthcare sector. Jack Smith, CEO of Verifyle, emphasized the significance of this partnership. "Healthcare information is highly sought after by malicious actors, making it imperative for organizations to adopt stringent security protocols. Our collaboration with NBHAP will empower their members to maintain the integrity and confidentiality of patient data while managing essential documents and communications." Verifyle's Cellucrypt® technology stands out from other cloud storage and sharing services. Instead of using a single master key, Verifyle employs password-derived keys in conjunction with a public-key system to individually encrypt data elements. This multi-layered approach significantly enhances security, further protected by the option to disable password resets. Despite its sophisticated security features, Verifyle remains user-friendly, making it an ideal solution for NBHAP members. About Verifyle Verifyle is committed to delivering ultra-secure messaging, document sharing, and digital signatures through a simple, intuitive interface. Designed to be the most secure cloud-sharing solution, Verifyle's patented encryption technology uniquely protects each document and message thread, guarding against bulk-access vulnerabilities. This results in heightened productivity and improved control over information for its users. About NBHAP The National Behavioral Health Association of Providers (NBHAP) represents behavioral health professionals and addiction treatment centers nationwide. As a leading industry organization, NBHAP advocates for higher standards of care, offers continuing education opportunities, and promotes evidence-based practices in addiction treatment. Serving thousands of members committed to enhancing patient outcomes and advancing the behavioral health field, NBHAP supports collaboration, research, and professional development to achieve its goals.
