which limits the access of data to employees and apps
which needs them truly.
Take steps to minimise
the chance of
unauthorised access.

offers DLP modules which can identify
HIPAA/HITECH violations henceforth protecting data.
CipherCloud offers full control over the
decryption of your data.

and key to Salesforce.com HIPAA compliance.
