To accelerate patient care and comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), healthcare organizations are under pressure to rapidly share personal information among providers, insurers, and patients within a rapidly evolving cloud environment. To protect patient data, Datadog's Sensitive Data Scanner helps entities subject to HIPAA discover PII at scale, classify sensitive healthcare data using granular rules, and redact results to prevent sensitive data from leaking into Datadog. The tool also provides real-time alerts, dashboards, and auditing capabilities to streamline investigations and reporting, enabling teams to take informed action based on the severity of the event.
