• Simply having secure software and cloud technology is insufficient to ensure a service's security. To achieve true security, a solid security framework, complete with appropriate policies and procedures, is also required.
• Effective communication and transparency between the healthcare organization and the imaging vendor are critical to avoiding mistakes and ensuring a smooth transition to SaaS in the cloud.
