As the company scaled, ensuring compliance with the **Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)** became a critical requirement to support customers handling Protected Health Information (PHI). Newo needed to meet strict standards for **data security and privacy**. Challenge ## The internal team faced a dual challenge: - **Tight timelines** to achieve compliance before key customer rollouts. - A need for a **streamlined and scalable approach** to security governance that wouldn’t slow down innovation. - Ensure **all AI-driven communication workflows** involving PHI met HIPAA Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification Rule Newo.ai needed a partner who could not only guide them through HIPAA compliance, but also implement a **Trust Center** powered by **Drata**, to continuously manage and demonstrate compliance. Solution ## Newo.ai engaged Axipro to lead its HIPAA compliance program and implement a sustainable, scalable framework using Drata. Axipro designed a custom compliance strategy that included: - **HIPAA Readiness Assessment**Comprehensive gap analysis against HIPAA requirements, including administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. - **Policy and Procedure Implementation**Drafting and rollout of HIPAA-compliant policies for access control, data retention, breach response, encryption, and workforce training. - **Risk Assessment & Control Mapping**Formal risk assessment identifying vulnerabilities in data handling workflows. Controls were mapped to HIPAA Security Rule standards and tracked via Drata. - **Drata Deployment & Trust Center Enablement**Axipro configured Drata for automated evidence collection, continuous monitoring, and real-time visibility into compliance posture. A public Trust Center was launched to demonstrate adherence to HIPAA standards to stakeholders. - **Training & Operational Integration**Internal training was conducted to ensure all staff were aware of their HIPAA responsibilities. Secure engineering and privacy-by-design principles were integrated into Newo.ai’s product development lifecycle. Throughout the engagement, Axipro acted as an **extension of the Newo.ai team**, providing guidance, hands-on execution, and best practices. ## Result – In just a few weeks, Newo.ai: - **Achieved formal HIPAA compliance**, with all required safeguards, documentation, and assessments in place. - **Deployed a live Trust Center via Drata**, giving healthcare clients and prospects clear visibility into Newo.ai’s compliance framework. - **Reduced compliance overhead** through automation and streamlined evidence workflows. - **Enabled secure handling of PHI** across all AI communication channels, meeting contractual obligations for healthcare clients.
