DNAnexus announced that its biomedical informatics platform has achieved readiness and, in many areas, exceeds the full series of online security policy objectives outlined in President Biden's recent executive order aimed at protecting critical American infrastructure from cyberattacks.

The measures outlined in the new national security memorandum, titled "Improving Cybersecurity for Critical Infrastructure Control Systems," are being coordinated by the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and National Institute of Standards and Technology.

DNAnexus offers a comprehensive security, quality, and privacy framework for biomedical informatics and data management and continuously makes improvements to its platform as the risks and threats to life science evolve.

Privacy - The DNAnexus Platform features client data encryption, role-based access control management at the project level, built-in application permissions, and a full audit trail, as well as operational and support protocols and strict governance on the access to client data.

Compliance and control validation - The DNAnexus Platform is ISO 27001 compliant and undergoes regular, independent reviews of security controls, as well as a formal annual assessment of its entire Information Security Management System.

"Over the past decade, DNAnexus has built a secure cloud platform for accessing, analyzing, and translating the world's biomedical data-powering a collaborative community that generates life-changing knowledge and breakthroughs in precision medicine," said Richard Daly, CEO of DNAnexus.
