Aiforia has designed and implemented its security practices to comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).

HIPAA compliance allows Aiforia to offer AI-supported image analysis solutions to a broader range of customers in the US.

"HIPAA compliance allows us to host the cloud environment and maintain patient data on behalf of the customer, which is a prerequisite to working with certain pathology laboratories in the US," Aiforia's CEO Jukka Tapaninen explains. "We take data security and privacy very seriously and will continue to strive to meet the highest security standards worldwide."
