Datica Celebrates 5th Anniversary as a Compliance and Security Leader for the Cloud

MADISON, WISC. AND SEATTLE — MAY 31, 2018

Datica™ announced today that this month marks the company’s 5th anniversary since carving out a niche market in 2013 when it first addressed compliance and security in the cloud. Today, Datica’s Platform for healthcare continues its evolution in one of the most highly regulated industries in the U.S. and has become an enabler for cloud-based strategies.

Last year, the company launched its first international pod and will be adding more in 2018. Getting in front of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been a driving force for Datica over the past year and a half. In 2017, the company began a GDPR audit process of its Platform, a move that soon makes the Platform compliant with the regulations of HIPAA, HITRUST, GDPR and GxP.

Other milestones Datica (originally founded under the name Catalyze) has had since its May 2013 launch include:

Raised $12.5 Million in funding since inception
First to make the Kubernetes technology for deploying containerized workloads HITRUST CSF Certified
Selected as a premier healthcare speaker at AWS re:Invent 2017, and featured in the main keynote at the 2018 Microsoft Build conference
Pioneered the Digital Health Success Framework, leading to industry-wide acclaim, including presenting at Health 2.0 and SXSW
Embraced a virtual workforce in 2013, tapping top healthcare technology talent across the nation
“Since 2013, we’ve put an emphasis on supporting customers by controlling growth, and in the first half of 2018 we’ve continued that company focus by spending all available resources on engineering and servicing customers, “ said Travis Good, MD, CEO and chief privacy officer. “When I think back to the start of the company, it’s humbling to see how our customer base has expanded from early-stage startups, then to mature healthcare vendors, and finally to the Fortune 500 mix of enterprise customers. It’s the compliance and security aspects that bring these customers to Datica; it’s core to our mission, so we ensure the Platform remains first and foremost secure.”

As Datica celebrates the past five years, it’s also a time to look to the future. Though healthcare has, up until now, been a core focus of the company, Datica’s newly introduced Cloud Compliance Management System will open a host of new opportunities for organizations to manage the compliant state of their entire enterprises in one actionable view — across multiple clouds and within multiple industries. “As we expand our partnerships with Microsoft Azure and AWS, and on to Google Cloud, Datica will explore offering end-to-end compliance beyond healthcare,” said Good.

About Datica
The Datica Platform is designed for those who store, manage and share protected health information (PHI) in the cloud and manages all ongoing compliance and security burdens found within the exacting standards of HIPAA, HITRUST, GDPR, and GxP. Customers can license and deploy cloud-native applications on their own cloud account, or tap Datica’s cloud account to receive compliance, security and electronic health record (EHR) integration expertise to launch and manage applications. Datica’s Kubernetes-enabled platform customers include mid-to-late stage startups to Fortune 100 companies across the healthcare spectrum: solution providers, hospital organizations, pharmaceutical giants and nationwide health insurance payers.

2018 Partners for Change Award presented to NGL

National Guardian Life Insurance Company (NGL) was presented with the 2018 Partners for Change Award by Madison-area Urban Ministry during their annual luncheon on April 24. NGL received the award in recognition of its commitment to support and address areas of need in the community.

Madison-area Urban Ministry (MUM) offers a variety of programs for individuals and families impacted by the criminal justice system. MUM’s programs inspire hope for individuals returning to the Dane County community after incarceration. In addition, MUM supports families of those incarcerated through reading programs, family visit programs and mentoring programs.

Elizabeth Kirchstein, NGL Director of Corporate Giving, accepted the 2018 Partners for Change award and shared why NGL is committed to supporting the organization. “MUM provides an opportunity for people who are reentering our community from the prison system with valuable skills, hope and a future. MUM’s programs also help children whose parents are incarcerated. In fact, most of the people who are incarcerated are parents and MUM’s programs help keep incarcerated mothers and fathers connected to their children. It’s an organization that is truly making a life changing difference. NGL is grateful to be recognized for its support of MUM,” said Kirchstein.

NGL has supported MUM for approximately five years. Recently, NGL made a multi-year commitment totaling $75,000 to aid in the renovation of MUM’s Healing House. There are only 63 medical respites in the U.S. and the Healing House will be the first in Wisconsin. Scheduled to open fall 2018, Healing House will be an eight-bed facility, providing 24/7 recuperative care by medically trained staff and volunteers for up to 28 days for homeless children or family members to stay as they heal after surgery. The Healing House will also provide clients with three meals a day, child care assistance and case management to end the cycle of homelessness.

It’s a Hat Trick for Tingalls Graphic Design: Leading Regional Design Firm Voted Madison’s Top Website Development Company for Third Consecutive Year

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Date: 12/5/2017

It’s a Hat Trick for Tingalls Graphic Design: Leading Regional Design Firm Voted Madison’s Top Website Development Company for Third Consecutive Year

For the third year in a row, local Madison business leaders have voted Tingalls Graphic Design the area’s best website development company in InBusiness Magazine’s 2017 Executive Choice Awards. The firm also took top honors in the same category in 2015 and 2016. Winners are chosen by fill-in-the-blank majority vote by Madison executives, business owners and decision makers, having achieved top-of-mind awareness in the business community and representing the best of the best in local professional services.

Tingalls Graphic Design, under the leadership of Owner and Creative Director Tara Ingalls, achieved another major milestone in 2017: During their 17th year in business, the firm celebrated serving its 1,000th client. “At the end of the day, happy clients are what make the work we do so fulfilling,” said Ingalls. “Of course these milestones and accolades are wonderful, but my company wouldn’t be where it is today without the support and referrals from satisfied clients.”

One such happy client is Andy Abelman, General Manager of the Fluno Center on the UW-Madison campus. “Our website needs to convey the full scope of our offerings at the Fluno Center, as well as how we connect with the campus community. As I had already hired Tingalls to spearhead our print marketing efforts and felt confident they would do great work on the website,” he said. “Their expertise helped guide the process efficiently and in a way that was in line with our vision and our brand. We’re thrilled with the custom, user-friendly website Tingalls delivered and continues to maintain and update for us. When I receive calls from clients, competitors and business associates asking if I can share who did our website, I’m more than happy to compliment and recommend Tingalls.”

The entire Tingalls team would like to extend a big thank you to all their colleagues who voted in the Executive Choice Awards.
