PHI Protection Audit-Ready Additional focus Built for Secure Collaboration [Request Brief](mailto:info@lattix.io?subject=Healthcare%20Technical%20Brief) [Talk to Engineering](mailto:info@lattix.io?subject=Healthcare%20Engineering%20Call) One PHI record · purpose-based policy decides what each role sees ## /01 HEALTHCARE DATA RISK ## Patient Data Moves Across More Systems Than Ever Healthcare data no longer stays inside one hospital, EHR, or clinical system. PHI moves across providers, payers, labs, research institutions, cloud platforms, and AI-enabled workflows. Traditional access controls often stop at the application boundary. Once data is exported, copied, shared, or processed by downstream tools, visibility and control weaken. Healthcare organizations need security that stays attached to the data itself. 01 PHI shared across disconnected systems and partners 02 Research datasets reused across teams and institutions 03 AI tools accessing sensitive clinical or patient data View 3 more risk signals 01 Risk signal 04 Audit gaps across cloud, lab, and third-party workflows 02 Risk signal 05 Consent, purpose, and role-based access complexity 03 Risk signal 06 Ransomware and insider-risk exposure ## /02 LATTIX APPROACH ## Keep Policy and Proof Attached to Healthcare Data Lattix applies zero trust directly to healthcare data objects. Policies, attributes, encryption controls, and lineage metadata travel with PHI, clinical files, and research datasets wherever they move. This enables healthcare teams to enforce access, verify usage, and preserve auditability across providers, research partners, AI workflows, and distributed systems. 01 ### Portable Policy Access rules remain bound to sensitive health data across systems and recipients. 02 ### Purpose-Based Access Policy decisions can account for role, purpose, consent, environment, and sensitivity. 03 ### Cryptographic Lineage Access, decrypt, sharing, and processing events generate tamper-evident evidence. 04 ### Secure Collaboration Enable controlled sharing between providers, labs, researchers, and partners. ## /03 USE CASES ## Built for Sensitive Healthcare Data Flows 01 ### PHI Sharing Across Providers Share sensitive patient data across care teams and institutions while preserving policy, revocation, and auditability. 02 ### Research Data Collaboration Enable controlled access to clinical and research datasets without losing lineage or governance. 03 ### AI and Clinical Analytics Governance Control what AI systems, models, and analysts can retrieve, process, and output from sensitive datasets. View 2 more use cases 01 Payer, Lab, and Partner Access Grant time-bound, policy-bound access to external organizations with verifiable usage records. 02 Incident Response and Forensics Trace access history, content lineage, and affected datasets after suspicious activity or breach events. ## /04 RELEVANT PRODUCTS ## Healthcare-Ready Components of the Lattix Security Fabric [Lattix Security Fabric Composable zero trust infrastructure for policy, enforcement, lineage, encryption, and data control.

View 3 more products 01 Lattix CAS Cryptographic content identity for clinical records, research files, model inputs, and derived datasets. 02 Lattix Lineage Tamper-evident proof for policy versions, access events, and audit roots. 03 Lattix Console Central governance for policy lifecycle, exceptions, revocations, and compliance exports. ## /05 GOVERNANCE ## Designed for Healthcare Data Governance Healthcare security requires more than identity and application controls. Organizations need persistent data governance, auditable access, and policy enforcement that survives data movement across clinical, research, and partner environments. Lattix supports data-centric zero trust by keeping policy, access control, and lineage bound to sensitive healthcare data itself. HIPAA-sensitive data protection PHI access governance Purpose-based data access More governance themes Audit and records traceability Research data collaboration AI and analytics governance Data minimization and controlled disclosure Post-quantum readiness for long-lived health records ## /06 WHY LATTIX ## From Application-Centric Security to Data-Centric Healthcare Control Traditional Model Lattix Model Traditional Model Secure access to healthcare applications and rely on system logs. Lattix Model Attach policy, encryption, and proof directly to healthcare data as it moves. Traditional Model Shared data often loses context after export or transfer. Lattix Model Portable policy and lineage persist across providers, labs, researchers, and partners. Traditional Model AI and analytics access is difficult to govern after ingestion. Lattix Model Policy controls determine what sensitive data can be retrieved, processed, and emitted. ## Secure Healthcare Data Beyond the Application Boundary Lattix keeps encryption and access policy attached to PHI and research data, producing the object-level encryption, per-release authorization, and audit trail the HIPAA Security Rule NPRM proposes. ### Request Healthcare Technical Brief Review the architecture for healthcare data governance and secure collaboration.
