Rapid Expert Determination
Integral delivers defensible Expert Determination in days. Automated profiling, expert-in-the-loop validation, full documentation.
Automated Data Profiling
Integral profiles every field, detects data types, maps potential identifiers and quasi-identifiers, and models re-identification risk across field combinations. No manual field mapping required.
Expert-in-the-Loop Validation
Qualified statistical experts review and validate every determination. You get the speed of automation with the legal defensibility of human oversight.
Faster Than Traditional EDR
By automating the labor-intensive steps - data profiling, risk assessment, documentation - Integral compresses the Expert Determination timeline from months to days.
Defensible Documentation
Every determination produces a comprehensive compliance package: methodology documentation, statistical analysis, risk thresholds, and expert sign-off - ready for regulatory review.
Re-identification Risk Scoring
Integral quantifies re-identification risk at the field, record, and dataset level using established statistical frameworks, giving you clear visibility into your exposure.
Repeatable and Version-Controlled
EDRs aren't one-time events. As your data changes, Integral re-evaluates and updates determinations automatically - keeping your data defensible as schemas evolve.
How It Works
Ingest & Profile
Connect your dataset - from a data warehouse, cloud storage, or flat file. Integral profiles every column, detects data types, and maps potential identifiers automatically.
Assess Re-identification Risk
The Privacy Agent applies statistical models to calculate re-identification probabilities across every combination of quasi-identifiers. You see exactly where your risk concentrations are.
Recommend Remediation
Based on the risk profile, Integral recommends remediation strategies tailored to your use case. Preserve geographic precision over demographics, retain clinical dates, use synthetic replacement for clinical notes, or apply alternative privacy models like differential privacy and k-map analysis. You choose the trade-offs - Integral identifies precise, defensible transformations scoped to your compliance requirements.
Expert Review & Determination
A qualified statistical expert reviews the analysis, validates the methodology, and issues a signed Expert Determination, a formal opinion that justifies low re-identification risk based on your data, use case, and privacy posture. A defensible artifact for regulators, partners, and legal reviews.
What Expert Determination enables
Expert Determination isn't just faster - it unlocks capabilities that Safe Harbor can't offer. Because the standard is based on statistical risk rather than a fixed checklist, your remediation can be flexible, so long as the privacy model supports a justification of sufficiently low risk of re-identification.
Linkage Tokens
Retain pseudo-anonymous identifiers from Datavant, IQVIA, HealthVerity, Spindle, and others. Safe Harbor's identifier #18 forces these out. Expert Determination lets you keep them.
Flexible Trade-Offs
Preserve geographic data over demographics, retain clinical dates, or configure age ranges to your needs. The remediation adapts to what your data consumers require.
Synthetic Replacement
Replace PHI in clinical notes with synthetic entities instead of redacting them - "hiding in plain sight." Natural-reading text, intact clinical context, stronger privacy posture.
Alternative Privacy Models
Go beyond standard de-identification with differential privacy, k-map analysis, generalization, truncation, and feature engineering - selected to match your data and use case.
Traditional EDR vs. Integral Rapid EDR
Traditional EDR
- 3–6 month engagement timelines
- Significantly higher cost per determination
- Manual data profiling and field mapping
- Static, one-time reports
- Difficult to repeat when data changes
- Limited visibility into methodology
Integral Rapid EDR
- Days, not months
- Fraction of traditional cost
- Automated profiling with human validation
- Living, version-controlled determinations
- Automatic re-evaluation as data evolves
- Full transparency into every decision
