What is confidentiality according to HIPPA?

Confidentiality is the privacy and non sharing of anything in the medical record except between medical providers. For example, if I call your physician or hospital and ask what you were in for last time, or if I can have your address, that is all confidential and cannot be released without a consent from you or a legal guardian.

If I am a physician, pharmacist or insurance company, I can ask to get pertinent information and it can be released to me, without your consent, because I am part of your health system and documents were signed at the beginning of the process by you to release this information.

There is nothing illegal about the website, but even if there was, you can't be held responsible for something that popped up on it's own.

Stateful Inspection.

A stateful inspection firewall uses a technique known as stateful packet filtering to keep track of communication channels. This is different when compared to basic firewalls. Once the packet and connection has been sent, a normal firewall will not remember the communication channel, whereas the stateful inspection firewall will. This also proves useful to protect connectionless communication protocols.
