Molina Healthcare, Inc. is a multi-state managed care organization that arranges for the delivery of healthcare services to persons eligible for Medicaid, Medicare, and other government-sponsored programs for low-income families and individuals.

(The Hosting News) – Fremont, CA – dataguise, a leading innovator of security solutions for protecting sensitive data across the enterprise, has announced that Molina Healthcare deployed dataguise dgmasker™ and dgdiscover™ in more than 100 training, development and testing environments. dataguise security products identify and mask the Personal Health Information (PHI) of Molina Healthcare’s members and providers, thus protecting sensitive data and enabling the managed care organization to meet HIPAA compliance requirements.
Prior to dataguise, Molina Healthcare was relying on an internally developed solution, which proved to be unreliable, difficult to maintain and required frequent adjustments. Since implementing the dataguise solutions, Molina Healthcare has eliminated the risk of exposure and access to its sensitive data while reducing the overhead needed for dedicated resources to manage and maintain the integrity of its database environments by 300 percent.
“As a healthcare organization that supports government programs, we are constantly receiving and storing highly sensitive data; a data breach would not only have a negative impact on customer satisfaction, but would also jeopardize our fulfilling HIPAA compliance standards,” said Nitin Gotmare, director of IT for Molina Healthcare. “The dataguise technology desensitizes information so that a breach is not possible. With dgmasker and dgdiscover in place, we can provide our customers and members with peace of mind that their personal health information is safe and secure.”
“With dataguise, organizations are mitigating the risk of exposure that privacy data presents when moved outside the walls of a secure network environment and replacing manual or home-grown solutions that drain internal resources and endanger its compliance status,” said Allan
