During a security risk assessment, you are asked to list the information assets that must be protected under the HIPAA Security Rule. The hospital manages several data sets. Which of the following items squarely falls within the Security Rule's scope and therefore requires implementation of the Rule's administrative, physical, and technical safeguards?

  • Employee email addresses maintained in the human resources directory

  • Digital radiology images stored on the hospital's Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS)

  • Aggregate, de-identified surgical outcome statistics posted on the hospital's public website

  • Paper copies of laboratory test results filed in locked cabinets
