ClearDATA, established in 2009, claims to have created the first and only cloud compliance and security solution purpose-built for healthcare. The company's CyberHealth Platform provides cloud security posture management across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, designed specifically to prevent, detect, and remediate compliance drift and sensitive data security gaps.
The firm's service portfolio includes cloud compliance, managed detection and response, cloud operations, cloud enablement, and staff augmentation. ClearDATA's focus on helping healthcare organizations protect data and maintain regulatory compliance extends beyond migration to comprehensive managed services. The company enables organizations to inherit or partially inherit controls for HITRUST certification, significantly reducing compliance burden.
ClearDATA has raised over $80 million in capital from investors including Merck Global Health Innovation Fund and Norwest Venture Partners, demonstrating strong backing and growth trajectory. Their multi-cloud support provides flexibility compared to single-platform providers. The company's team brings deep healthcare industry knowledge and understands the unique regulatory and operational challenges facing healthcare organizations.
ClearDATA's architecture approach has been described as less flexible than some competitors, with predetermined configurations that may limit customization options. The company requires clients to use ticketing systems for environment changes rather than providing direct access, which can create friction. Organizations outside healthcare will be better served by general-purpose providers. For healthcare organizations prioritizing security and compliance above architectural flexibility, ClearDATA offers purpose-built capabilities and deep healthcare expertise, though clients seeking more control and customization may prefer alternatives.
