Building Security into Healthcare AI: Protecting PHI Without Slowing Developers Down

Arcjet provides an SDK that embeds data protection directly into healthcare application code, enabling HIPAA compliance without external data sharing. The tool processes PHI locally within your environment, detecting and redacting sensitive information before storage or transmission. By operating at the application layer rather than network level, it maintains access control, data integrity, and transmission protection while allowing developers to implement security rules as code. The SDK scales from basic PHI detection to comprehensive features including rate limiting, bot protection, and API abuse prevention, all while keeping audit trails without exposing actual patient data.
