PAM for hospitals, payers, and clinical networks — engineered for 24×7 care.
Healthcare privileged access is uniquely brittle: any control that adds 30 seconds to a code blue scenario is a control the floor will route around. DataDike was designed for environments where session traceability is non-negotiable and clinical workflow disruption is not an option. Built for HIPAA, HITECH, LGPD, and the realities of running EHR estates, medical imaging, and connected medical devices.

Why PAM matters here
Privileged access in healthcare is unlike any other vertical
A core banking outage costs money; a hospital EHR outage costs lives. That asymmetry shapes everything about how PAM must work in this space. Controls that interrupt clinical workflow get disabled — formally, informally, or via shared accounts that defeat the audit trail. The PAM problem in healthcare is not "can we enforce access policy?" — it is "can we enforce access policy in a way the clinical floor will not bypass under pressure?" DataDike's pre-approved time-bound JIT, sub-5-second clinical break-glass workflow, and session recording without latency penalty are the answer to that constraint.
Compliance is mandatory and audit is continuous
HIPAA Security Rule §164.308 (administrative safeguards) and §164.312 (technical safeguards) require demonstrable access controls and audit trails on systems handling ePHI. HITECH raised the bar on enforcement and breach disclosure. In Brazil, LGPD Articles 46–48 plus ANS regulations for health insurers create an equivalent regime. The common thread: regulators want continuous evidence, not annual snapshots.
How DataDike maps to the work
EHR session recording — Epic, Cerner, MEDITECH, TASY
Native session proxy for the major EHR estates. Keystroke + screen + clipboard capture for break-glass access to patient records. Audit format compatible with the EHR's own internal audit log — auditors get one stream, reconciled.
Medical imaging and PACS
DICOM systems, modality admin consoles, and the DBs behind PACS estates are first-class targets. Same UI, same audit format. Specialized controls for radiologist break-glass workflows where speed matters.
Connected medical devices
IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) estates have privileged access patterns that traditional PAM ignores. DataDike covers infusion-pump fleets, lab analyzers, and the network gear they live on — agentless, so device certification posture is not affected.
Research and clinical-trial environments
Clinical research data carries different sensitivity (HIPAA + GCP + 21 CFR Part 11 in some cases). Segregated tenancy, separate audit streams, and explicit consent capture in the session record — all configurable per environment.
Vendor and biomed access
Third-party biomed engineers, EHR vendor remote support, imaging-modality field service — DataDike's vendor-access workflow gives time-bound, MFA-protected, fully-recorded access without standing accounts on your domain.
LGPD Article 46–48 evidence pack
For Brazilian healthcare operators, ANPD inquiries on privileged-access incidents have a defined evidence shape. DataDike's pre-mapped LGPD dashboard produces it on demand.

LATAM healthcare network passes joint HIPAA + LGPD assessment after standing up session recording in 5 weeks
A regional healthcare operator with 18 hospitals and 200 clinics needed clinical-system session recording for a joint HIPAA + LGPD compliance program. DataDike was production for 1,400 clinical staff in 5 weeks.
