Life at Protenus

Protenus helps healthcare leaders gain full insight into how health data is being used. We alert privacy, security and compliance teams to inappropriate activity in real-time, and help our partner hospitals make decisions about how to better protect their data, their patients, and their institutions. Our solution is a lightweight analytical tool focused on protecting against insider threats. Built for overburdened hospital compliance & security officers, our analytics filter through the millions of activities that take place in a hospital every day in order to proactively identify HIPAA violations, incidents of drug diversion, and more. Our solution deeply understands how patient data should be used and, as a result, can accurately determine when it is used improperly. We promise to help hospital compliance officers sleep soundly at night, knowing that all hospital employees are only using data within the bounds of their clinical or administrative responsibilities. For Compliance Officers Our solution helps you save time, reduce false positives, and stay compliant by proactively flagging potential HIPAA violations, incidents of clinical drug diversion, and more, drastically reducing investigation time. For the Hospital or Institution Our solution minimizes the risk of lawsuits, fines, and reputational damage associated with unaddressed HIPAA violations, clinical drug diversion, and more, ultimately keeping patient data safer and keeping our customers out of the headlines. For the Community Our solution ensures that patient information is only accessed for the right reasons, restoring trust between patients and providers.
