How Caspio Delivers Data Security and Compliance Across Industries and Regions
July 21, 2020
IT and business leaders of companies large and small understand that data is an important corporate asset that needs to be protected. Failure to do so may result in breaches that can lead to financial losses and erosion of customer trust, causing customer loyalty and retention issues.
Cyber criminals relentlessly try to hack into government agencies and corporations across all industries. Home Depot, Target, Anthem, eBay, Ashley Madison, and the U.S. Office of Personnel Management were among the most notable victims of data breaches over the past few years, with more than 100 million records exposed. According to Forrester, personally identifiable information (PII) was among the top data types compromised in a data breach.
Here is how Caspio protects the PII data of customers globally, across various industries:
1. Healthcare
The Caspio HIPAA Edition brings the power of Caspio to hospitals, health insurance providers, state insurance exchanges, research universities, and pharmaceutical companies. Protected health information (PHI) and personally identifiable information (PII) are encrypted at rest and in transit. All data usage is logged and archived according to HIPAA requirements and Caspio maintains BAAs with its vendors and offers BAAs to its customers.
2. Education
The Caspio Compliance Edition meets or exceeds the requirements of The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) to protect the privacy of student education records. Caspio serves the education industry at all levels, from prestigious universities and private colleges, to charter schools and K-12 school districts.
3. U.S. Government Agencies & Contractors
The Caspio GovCloud Edition meets the security requirements and cryptographic standards such as the FIPS 140-2 mandated by the U.S. government. Additionally, Caspio is on the list of approved vendors for many states, and is used extensively by many local government entities.
4. European Union
Caspio meets the security, privacy, and regulatory requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation that intends to strengthen and unify data protection for individuals within the European Union. The Caspio EU Compliance Edition provides dedicated infrastructure located entirely in EU (Ireland and Germany). All datacenters used for data backup, retention, and disaster recovery procedures stay within the European Economic Area borders as well.
