Your Case Integrity is Our Highest Priority.At ACD Legal Support, we understand that handling Protected Health Information (PHI) is a significant responsibility. We operate as a formal Business Associate under HIPAA regulations, maintaining a comprehensive security framework designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your firm’s most sensitive data.
We provide a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) for every partnership, ensuring your firm remains in total regulatory compliance.
The ACD Security Framework
1. Technical Safeguards Military-Grade Encryption: All case files and clinical data are stored in 256-bit AES encrypted vaults, the industry standard for high-security data.
End-to-End Encryption: We utilize SSL/TLS 1.2+ encryption for all data in transit. Your files are never transmitted via unsecured email; they remain within our encrypted ecosystem from intake to delivery.
100% Domestic Infrastructure: All data is hosted on U.S.-based, HIPAA-compliant servers. We do not utilize offshore cloud storage or third-party servers outside of United States jurisdiction.
2. Administrative Safeguards & Access ControlStrict "Least Privilege" Access: Access to case files is strictly restricted to the specific MD/RN and drafting team assigned to that file. Internal access is granted on a "need-to-know" basis only.
Workforce Training: Every member of the ACD team undergoes mandatory annual HIPAA privacy and security awareness training to stay ahead of evolving threats.
BAA Management: We maintain formal Business Associate Agreements with all subcontractors and clinical experts in our network, extending our security standards across the entire workflow.
3. Proactive Auditing & IntegrityImmutable Activity Logs: Our systems utilize automated audit logs to track every instance of data access, movement, or modification, providing a clear chain of custody for your files.
Proactive Threat Monitoring: We employ automated safeguards to monitor for unauthorized access attempts, ensuring the "Zero-Leakage" promise applies to your data as well as our clinical reviews.
Data Redundancy: We maintain secure, encrypted backups to ensure the continuous availability of your case data, protecting your firm against local hardware failure or data loss.
