Healthcare — Safety, Security and Operations Intelligence AI

Fogsphere turns every camera and sensor in your hospital or clinic into a patient-safety and clinical-operations co-pilot — edge-first, privacy-aware, and aligned with HIPAA, ISO 13485 and GDPR.

Pharmaceutical clean room scene with Patient Safety Our Priority dashboard overlay

Compliant by design

Built for healthcare compliance — HIPAA, GDPR and six ISO standards

Edge-first analytics, anonymized video and tight audit trails — engineered to fit the regulatory and quality systems healthcare already runs on.

HIPAA

Privacy-aware analytics, face blurring and anonymization. Edge-only processing means PHI never leaves the facility. Audit trails for cleaning, access and response.

ISO 13485

Quality management system alignment. Audit-ready evidence capture for falls, blocked exits and hygiene events. Risk-management reporting compatible with medical-device QMS.

GDPR

Anonymized video workflows, limited data retention and privacy-by-default analytics for patient and visitor counting. Lawful basis for safety monitoring built in.

ISO 45001

OH&S hazards, controls and incident learning. Unsafe acts, near-misses and corrective-action evidence are logged across wards and back-of-house.

ISO 35001

Biorisk for labs, pathology and isolation work. Restricted-zone access, PPE state, waste routes and contamination evidence captured per event.

ISO 15189

Laboratory quality, competence and traceability. Access, sample flow and clean/dirty pathways logged with timestamp and camera reference.

ISO 22301

Continuity during outage, cyber, fire or mass-casualty events. Critical-area monitoring, workflow state and drill evidence in one record.

ISO 27001

Security and privacy for streams, data, logs and integrations. Edge processing, retention limits, RBAC, masking and audit logs.
