Our Data Centers Adhere to These Industry-Leading Security Frameworks:

Healthcare Regulations & Standards

HIPAA:

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) is a federal law that protects patients’ health information (“PHI”) and gives them rights over their records. HIPAA establishes standards to protect sensitive health information from being disclosed without a patient’s consent.

HITECH:

The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (“HITECH”) Act is a 2009 law that expanded the HIPAA Act of 1996. The HITECH Act aims to improve healthcare by promoting the use of electronic health records (“EHRs”), increasing penalties for HIPAA violations, and adding breach notification requirements.

HITRUST:

HITRUST stands for the Health Information Trust Alliance (“HITRUST”). It was founded in 2007 and uses the HITRUST approach to help organizations from all sectors, especially healthcare, effectively manage data, information risk, and compliance. HITRUST is a voluntary certification and cybersecurity framework that helps healthcare organizations comply with HIPAA and HITECH.

Audit & Reporting Frameworks

SOC 1 Type II:

A SOC 1 Type 2 report is a Service Organization Controls (“SOC”) audit that assesses the design and effectiveness of a service organization’s controls over time. Created by the AICPA, it helps businesses evaluate risks associated with outsourced services.

SOC 2 Type II:

A SOC 2 Type 2 report is a third-party audit that assesses a Service Organization’s security controls and practices over a specified period of time. It was created by the AICPA and is considered a more valuable report than a SOC 2 Type 1 report. This report provides detailed insights into the operational effectiveness of the organization’s controls, ensuring ongoing compliance and trustworthiness.

SOC 3:

A SOC 3 report outlines information related to a Service Organization’s internal controls for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

ISO 27001:

ISO 27001 is an international standard created by the International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) that helps businesses manage information security. It is an Information Security Management System (“ISMS”) standard that outlines requirements, best practices, and security controls.

GDPR:

The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is a European Union (“EU”) law that protects the personal data of individuals in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). Its purpose gives individuals more control over their data and limits how organizations can use it.
