Third Party Risk

Control PHI You Share Even After It Leaves Your Systems

Third-party breaches are the leading source of healthcare data exposure. Seald Healthcare ensures that data shared with vendors and partners stays encrypted at the record level, so even if a third party's systems are compromised, the PHI they hold remains unreadable without your authorization.

The Problem

You cannot control what happens inside a vendor you do not manage

Health systems, payers, and specialty providers share PHI with hundreds of vendors annually. Business Associate Agreements create legal accountability, but they do not prevent breaches. Once you hand over plaintext data, the risk is entirely theirs to manage and entirely yours to bear.

The majority of large healthcare breaches originate at business associates, not covered entities themselves.

BAAs establish liability but do not reduce the probability or impact of a third-party breach.

Vendor security assessments are point-in-time snapshots; they cannot account for changes in a vendor posture after you share data.

When a vendor is breached, you face the OCR notification obligation, the class action exposure, and the reputational damage, regardless of which party was at fault.

How Seald Healthcare Solves It

Make third-party breaches a vendor problem, not a patient data problem

Seald Healthcare ensures the data you share with vendors is never plaintext, so a breach at their end does not become a breach at yours.

PHI Encrypted Before It Reaches Third Parties

Data shared with vendors, clearinghouses, and contractors is encrypted at the record level before transmission. A breach at the vendor exposes only ciphertext, not patient records.

Access That Expires When the Relationship Does

Set access policies tied to contract terms or project timelines. When a vendor relationship ends, access is revoked automatically, including for data they already hold.

Visibility Into Third-Party Access Events

Track every time a vendor accesses PHI in your shared data set. Detect unusual access patterns before they become breach incidents.

HIPAA Encryption Safe Harbor for Shared Data

PHI shared through Seald Healthcare is encrypted in a manner designed to support the HIPAA encryption safe harbor. A breach of encrypted data does not trigger the same notification obligations as a breach of plaintext PHI.
