AWS provides several reports from third-party auditors who have verified compliance with a variety of computer security standards and regulations (aws.amazon.com/compliance) including ISO 27001 ISMS. MediGO has signed a BAA with AWS after fulfilling the compliance requirements.
Redundancy is built into the databases and products offering customizable data archiving and retention as required by HIPAA and other regulations. Customer data will be retained, available from export at the termination of the contract, and then sanitized from MediGO exceeding guidelines from NIST SP 800-88 rev1.
