The problem
BioInfoExperts provides analysis for infectious disease surveillance. Its AWS-native application did not yet handle protected health information, and the goal was to be ready when it did. Its previous partner audited policies but offered no continuous monitoring.
The scope
Continuous monitoring and remediation of the AWS environment, and readiness for healthcare data.
What we did
- Deployed Cloudticity Oxygen for continuous monitoring and remediation.
- Found and fixed key vulnerabilities the previous partner had missed.
- Brought third-party API integrations to a HIPAA-compliant state.
The result
The team can verify its security and compliance at any moment. A team member who had focused only on security moved to innovation, and the company uncovered a new revenue line.
“We’ve increased our pace of innovation, and we are more able to take risks because we know we have the support to guide us and alert us if something does go wrong.”
