Setup a secure lockdown environment using Cromwell on Azure
Setup a highly secure and locked down genomics infrastructure in the cloud is necessary to ensure the protection of sensitive data and to maintain compliance with data privacy and security regulations (HIPPA, FEDRAMP). using Cromwell on Azure.Genomics workflows on secure lockdown environment using Cromwell on AKS
Healthcare organization's heightened security, privacy, and compliance requirements (HIPAA, FEDRAMP) dictate the way genomics infrastructure is set up to provide end-to-end security for the environment. Cromwell on Azure using AKS is one such pattern. We worked with one such large provider in the US that does not take security lightly. They have a tightly controlled secure Azure environment, and every deployment must pass through rigorous security and infosec reviews. As part of their partnership with Microsoft, they are in the process of migrating all their genomic workflows and solutions from on-prem and competing cloud infrastructure to Microsoft Azure in partnership with Microsoft Industry solutions healthcare service line and Microsoft Health Futures. Both parties worked on one such deployment methodology for AKS-enabled Cromwell on Azure to run one of their key genomics workflows – the TruSight Oncology 500 assay (TSO500).
