Healthcare’s growing reliance on AI, analytics, and cross-institution collaboration is constrained by fragmented data, strict regulation, and the lack of secure ways to use sensitive health data without losing control or trust. By separating data from systems and providing a secure execution layer that fits existing IT, healthcare organizations can generate reproducible evidence, enable secure collaboration, and accelerate innovation while retaining full control. This session presents a zero-trust, sovereignty-first approach where data stays inside the hospital or government’s own environment (on-prem or sovereign infrastructure) while analysis is executed locally and only non-identifiable results can be shared.
