Varonis has achieved Hébergeur de Données de Santé (Health Data Hosting) certification in France, demonstrating its ability to meet stringent legal requirements for safeguarding personal medical information. This certification enables Varonis to serve French healthcare customers and expand its footprint in EU healthcare markets, reinforcing trust by ensuring data handling adheres to the highest standards of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Varonis Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRNS) has achieved the Hébergeur de Données de Santé (HDS) certification in France, marking a significant milestone in the company's commitment to data security and compliance. The certification, which is mandatory for organizations hosting health data in France, validates that Varonis' cloud-native Data Security Platform meets the stringent legal requirements outlined in the HDS Referential version 2.0 [1].The HDS certification enables Varonis to serve French healthcare customers who are legally required to use HDS-certified providers. This achievement also strengthens Varonis' position in the EU healthcare markets, allowing the company to expand its footprint and demonstrate its dedication to maintaining high standards of data confidentiality, integrity, and availability [1].
Gilad Raz, CIO and VP of Technical Services at Varonis, underscored the significance of this certification: "Varonis is dedicated to upholding the highest international standards for data security. Achieving the HDS certification reinforces our commitment to protecting our customers’ health data and complying with local regulations" [1].
The certification comes at a time when data privacy and protection regulations are becoming increasingly stringent worldwide. Recent high-profile cases, such as Uber's €290 million fine by the Dutch Data Protection Authority for GDPR violations, highlight the importance of adhering to these regulations [2].
Varonis' HDS certification is a testament to its ability to meet stringent legal requirements for safeguarding personal medical information. As the company continues to expand its presence in the EU healthcare market, this certification will be a crucial factor in building trust with customers and regulators alike.
