The problem we solve: Bring Your Own devices and HIPAA compliant texting Apps are not truly secure. Software alone CANNOT prevent out-of-App use of camera. Clinical photos can become mixed in with personal photos. Inappropriate photos can be taken in the hospital, the OR, Nursing Homes, or other care facilities. This can result in "image leak" onto social media, iCloud, and eventually cause HIPAA violations. Such violations can cost up to $1.5 million and create public relations disasters.
About our solution: Our device has 3 solutions to this problem: 1) It defaults all photography through the App and stores images off-device in a HIPAA secure cloud. 2) It pairs uniquely with device and monitors compliance through a networked security dashboard. 3) Its unique design creates a "uniform" for the phone, easily identifying non-compliant phones, creating a new workplace standard.
Progress to date:We have filed a patent and engaged prototyping and software companies. We are working on a prototype design and software integration of the device with an App. Final design may appear different than photos pictured.Creator: Jonathan Landry

Thank You
This project will help make the healthcare experience more private and secure. It will help enable reliable and secure use of mobile imaging in healthcare. For organizations, it will decrease risk of HIPAA violations, potential litigation, and provide an additional layer of security and compliance tracking. It may affect rates of breach insurance.
This is not just about healthcare. I believe this is universal problem--the lack of privacy in our lives--in every sector. Go to the bank, CVS, the police, manufacturing, you will find unprotected personal devices in use; there is no protection from the ubiquitous mobile device. Everyday there are new privacy violations and embarassing photos people took at work. Everyone can take pictures of personal information with their phone. This device will help put a stop to this. If they have our Privacy device on their phone, they cannot take a picture without it being reviewed by their employer. This will help to create a new norm of security in the workplace.
