With increasing regulations around data management and the possibility of cyber threats, healthcare institutions constantly face new challenges around the secure retention of large-scale data with Protected Health Information (PHI). As a cloud-based SaaS provider to NGS laboratories, Genosity’s products need to comply with a myriad of data security regulations including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). IGT is an end-to-end platform deployed in AWS under stringent security policies that are constantly monitored by EPAM and Genosity.
