Why healthcare is different

PHI is non-negotiable. So is uptime.

Healthcare runs on trust. A single PHI breach triggers regulatory action and erodes patient confidence; a single outage can interrupt care. Generic DevOps doesn't account for HIPAA scope, audit evidence, or the availability clinical systems demand.

SquareOps designs healthcare infrastructure from the ground up for the HIPAA Security Rule — BAA-eligible services only, PHI encrypted everywhere, access controlled and logged, and high availability with tested disaster recovery. Compliance and resilience are architected in, not bolted on.

What we deliver

Healthcare infrastructure services

End-to-end cloud for HealthTech — compliant, encrypted, and built for clinical reliability.

SERVICE 01

HIPAA-compliant cloud architecture

BAA-scoped AWS/GCP design where PHI only ever touches HIPAA-eligible services — VPCs, compute, databases, and storage configured to stay in scope.

  • BAA-eligible services only
  • PHI workload isolation
  • Cloud BAA execution support
SERVICE 02

PHI encryption & access control

Encryption at rest and in transit, least-privilege identity, and tamper-evident audit logging of every access to patient data.

  • KMS & TLS 1.3 everywhere
  • Least-privilege IAM + MFA
  • Full access audit trail
SERVICE 03

Compliance & audit readiness

HIPAA Security Rule controls plus SOC 2 and HITRUST readiness, with automated evidence collection that keeps you continuously audit-ready.

  • HIPAA + SOC 2 + HITRUST
  • Automated evidence
  • Assessor support
SERVICE 04

Secure CI/CD for regulated health data

Pipelines with security gates, change control, and segregation of duties so releases stay compliant without slowing your team.

  • Security-gated pipelines
  • Change control & approvals
  • SBOM & image scanning
SERVICE 05

HA/DR for clinical uptime

Multi-AZ and multi-region high availability with automated failover, defined RTO/RPO, and tested recovery runbooks for patient-facing systems.

  • Multi-AZ / multi-region HA
  • Automated failover
  • Tested DR runbooks
SERVICE 06

Health-data residency

Pin PHI to the regions your regulations and contracts require, with guardrails that prevent data from leaving the chosen geography.

  • Region-locked storage
  • Replication policies
  • Egress guardrails
How we secure PHI

A control at every layer

From the cloud BAA to the audit trail, each layer keeps patient data in scope and protected.

LAYER 01

BAA scope

Architect so PHI only touches HIPAA-eligible AWS/GCP services, with the cloud BAA in place.

LAYER 02

Encrypt

Encryption at rest and in transit, with managed keys and rotation across every PHI store.

LAYER 03

Control access

Least-privilege IAM, MFA, and segmentation so only the right people and services reach PHI.

LAYER 04

Log & prove

Tamper-evident logging of every access, feeding continuous SOC 2 and HITRUST evidence.

FAQs

Healthcare cloud — common questions

HIPAA, BAA scope, PHI protection, compliance, and clinical uptime.

Is AWS HIPAA compliant, and do you sign a BAA?

AWS and GCP both offer HIPAA-eligible services and will sign a Business Associate Addendum (BAA) covering them. Compliance is a shared responsibility — the cloud provider secures the platform, and we configure your workloads to stay within BAA scope: using only BAA-eligible services, encrypting PHI, restricting access, and logging everything. We help you execute the cloud BAA and architect so PHI only ever touches covered services.

How do you protect PHI in the cloud?

Defense in depth: encryption at rest with KMS and in transit with TLS 1.3, least-privilege IAM with MFA, network segmentation that isolates PHI workloads, tamper-evident audit logging of every access, and automated backups with tested restore. PHI is confined to BAA-eligible services and never written to logs or non-covered systems.

Can you help us achieve HITRUST and SOC 2?

Yes. We implement the technical controls behind HIPAA Security Rule, SOC 2 Type II, and HITRUST CSF, automate evidence collection, and work alongside your assessors. We map each control to concrete infrastructure configuration so audits are evidenced continuously rather than reconstructed before each review.

How do you guarantee uptime for clinical systems?

We design multi-AZ, and where needed multi-region, high availability with automated failover, tested disaster-recovery runbooks, and defined RTO/RPO targets. Clinical and patient-facing systems get 24×7 SRE coverage under a 99.95% SLA so outages are caught and resolved before they affect care.

Where is our health data stored — can you keep it in-region?

Yes. We pin data residency to the regions your regulations and contracts require — US, EU, India, or elsewhere — using region-locked services, replication policies, and guardrails that prevent PHI from leaving the chosen geography.

Do you have healthcare clients?

Yes. We've delivered HIPAA-grade infrastructure for HealthTech companies including EyeControl, Encyrcle, and Primefocus — covering BAA-scoped AWS/GCP architecture, PHI protection, compliance readiness, and high-availability clinical workloads.
