Nearly Half of Healthcare and Financial Services Executives Believe Enhanced PET Solutions Give Their Organizations a Competitive Advantage

In a new survey released today by TripleBlind, 94% of CDOs from healthcare organizations and financial service firms stated deploying data privacy technology that enforces existing data privacy regulations would result in increased revenues for their organizations. 37% of respondents stated they estimate improved collaboration would increase revenues as much as 20%. In addition, 46% stated increased data collaboration would give their organization a competitive advantage over other organizations. TripleBlind is creator of the most complete and scalable solution for privacy enhancing computation.

Additional key findings of the survey included:

• 64% of respondents are concerned that employees at organizations with which they are collaborating will use data in a way not authorized in signed legal agreements,
• 60% are concerned people at organizations with which they collaborate will use data that violates HIPAA and/or other data privacy regulations,
• 60% are concerned that the privacy-enhancing technology (PET) solution deployed by data collaboration partners will modify the data to make the results of analyses inaccurate.

“There is strong agreement that optimizing effective data collaboration through advanced PET solutions will result in both increased revenues and enhanced competitive advantage,” said Riddhiman Das, TripleBlind’s Co-founder and CEO. “Today, advanced PET solutions exist that render legal agreements obsolete and prevent people at both the data user and data owner from using data in a way that violates HIPAA and other data privacy regulations or modifies data in a way that results in inaccurate analyses.”
