Health Cloud with Platform Encryption
Information security and privacy have always been a primary concern of Salesforce. Out of the box, Salesforce provides a wide range of features to help ensure their customer’s information is secure. For customers that may require a higher level of data retention, audit trails, or policy management, Salesforce has introduced Salesforce Shield.
New in the Winter ’19 release, you can take advantage of Platform Encryption to introduce a more powerful level of security to protect your patient data. Winter ’19 now works with Platform Encryption to help encrypt information kept in some of the more sensitive fields within the Health Insurance and Utilization Management data models.
