-
Compliance Achievement
Integrity, availability, and confidentiality of ePHI, in line with the recommended safeguards of the HIPAA Security Rule wherever the data goes..
-
Zero-Trust Environment
XQ & Keystone elevates data transfer and storage to zero trust data access (ZTDA) by microsegmenting and encapsulating your data to control access both inside and outside your network, application or cloud.
Solutions
-
Data transfer from onsite to cloud environments
XQ Data Transfer is a cloud-based solution for Zero Trust Data Access (ZTDA) that encapsulates your data and also delivers unparalleled security for seamless site-to-site connectivity.
XQ's Zero Trust Data technology ensures customer control over encryption keys, maintains a forensic chain of custody, and offers data sovereignty. It enables secure data migration, geofencing, and protection across diverse networks with a detailed audit trail.
This end-to-end security setup generates comprehensive logs to accompany the data transmission process, which can be provided to clients to ensure compliance.
-
Secure sensitive data stored on the EBS volumes
Deploying XQ's Data Vault solution directly onto the EMR Platform's EC2 instances ensures data integrity and maintains comprehensive access logs for sensitive data.
XQ enhances AWS by providing secure data custody, geo-fencing, and access policy enforcement for data sovereignty. This complements AWS Sovereign Cloud and simplifies compliance, aligning with the Shared Responsibility Security Model.
-
Compliance Strategy
Keystone's clients entrust them with the most sensitive and confidential health data. XQ data rights management (DRM) crosses boundaries between environments and creates a unique secure chain of custody for each data object.
The chain of custody generated meticulous logs ensuring that Keystone's clients can attain the most stringent compliance standards.
