HIPAA-compliant enterprise AI search deployed in your Azure tenant
Healthcare organizations need AI search that meets strict HIPAA requirements. QueryNow Search runs entirely in your Azure environment. Your data never leaves your tenant. No BAA with a search vendor required.
Why most enterprise search fails HIPAA compliance
SaaS search products like Glean send your data to their infrastructure. That means a BAA with the search vendor, data leaving your network, and a compliance surface area you can't fully control. QueryNow eliminates this entirely.
Your Azure tenant, your control
Every component runs in your Azure subscription. You control network rules, encryption keys, access policies, and data lifecycle.
Zero data exfiltration
No data is sent to QueryNow or any external service. Azure OpenAI runs in your tenant. Search indexes stay in your Azure AI Search instance.
Security trimming enforced
Search results respect existing M365 and application-level permissions. Users only see documents they are authorized to access.
Full audit trail
Every search query, every result served, every action taken is logged in Azure SQL with timestamps, user IDs, and source attribution.
No vendor access to PHI
QueryNow deploys the system and hands you the keys. Optional support uses screen-sharing only. We never have direct access to your data.
Inherits Azure compliance
Azure is HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC 2 Type II, FedRAMP, and ISO 27001 certified. QueryNow Search inherits these certifications by running entirely within Azure.
HIPAA compliance mapping
| HIPAA Requirement | QueryNow Implementation | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Data at rest encryption | Azure SQL TDE, Azure Blob AES-256, Azure AI Search encrypted indexes | Fully compliant |
| Data in transit encryption | TLS 1.2+ enforced on all endpoints, internal service-to-service encryption | Fully compliant |
| Access controls | Entra ID authentication, RBAC, minimum-privilege service principals, security trimming | Fully compliant |
| Audit logging | Azure Monitor, Azure SQL audit logs, search query audit trail | Fully compliant |
| Data residency | Deployed in your Azure tenant, your region. Data never leaves your environment. | Fully compliant |
| BAA requirement | Microsoft signs BAA for Azure services. QueryNow has no access to PHI. | Fully compliant |
