Cognoa Improves Data Management Practices for AI-Based Medical Diagnostics with Immuta

Immuta, the leading provider of enterprise data management solutions for artificial intelligence (AI), today announced a new customer relationship with Cognoa, which provides an AI-based solution for pediatric behavioral health diagnostics and digital therapies. Cognoa utilizes Immuta's platform to ensure data access policies are consistently and accurately enforced across a wide variety of data sources and users driving their machine learning programs. Palo Alto, CA-based Cognoa trains algorithms to aid in the diagnosis of behavioral health conditions, including autism and ADHD, with highly sensitive data from a production database which lives in a HIPAA environment. Data privacy and security concerns are paramount for the company, and Cognoa needed a platform that would enforce data access roles, permissions, and policies beyond the standard resource or table-based control levels. Halim Abbas, Chief AI Officer, Cognoa "We have a group of very talented data scientists who build our run-time engine for diagnostics software. Our legacy practice of providing them with all of the data they required to build models, while removing the ePHI and HIPAA sensitive information, was extremely time and labor intensive. It was essential to expedite this process, and to also continue to anonymize sensitive information for reporting."
