The Standard for AI Compliance in the United States

Organizations in the United States operate under a complex matrix of federal and state regulations, including HIPAA for healthcare, GLBA for financial services, and statespecific privacy laws like the CCPA. Professional responsibility obligations further compound the compliance challenge. The unmanaged use of generative AI introduces significant exposure, creating a direct conflict with these duties.

Cazimir provides a definitive technical safeguard, enabling firms to adopt AI while upholding their legal and ethical obligations. Achieving Cazimir Certified status demonstrates to clients, regulators, and partners that your organization has moved beyond policy to implementation.

Supported Identifier Formats (US)

Cazimir’s jurisdiction-specific engine for the United States is engineered to identify and sanitize a comprehensive range of sensitive data formats, including:

  • Social Security Numbers (SSN)
  • Driver’s License and State ID Numbers
  • Phone numbers, email addresses, and physical addresses
  • Protected Health Information (PHI) identifiers, including Medical Record Numbers (MRN)
  • Financial account numbers (bank accounts, credit cards, brokerage accounts)
  • Case numbers and legal matter identifiers
  • Other personally identifiable information (PII) as defined by federal and state laws.

Illustrative Use Case: Healthcare System

Scenario

A multi-state hospital and clinic network with thousands of employees faces a common challenge: clinicians are informally using public AI tools to help draft patient summaries and medical notes, creating significant HIPAA exposure as Protected Health Information (PHI) is being transmitted to third-party AI systems. A simple policy ban is ineffective and stifles productivity.

How Cazimir Addresses This

The network deploys Cazimir Enterprise across its entire organization. The platform is configured to recognize and sanitize all forms of PHI, including MRNs and patient names, before any data is sent to the AI model. Implementation is completed in under a week with no disruption to clinical workflows.

Expected Outcome

The healthcare system achieves Cazimir Certified status, allowing it to safely sanction the use of AI for clinical documentation. Internal compliance audits show a dramatic reduction in PHI exposure from AI tools. The certification serves as a key differentiator in partnerships with insurance providers and demonstrates a proactive approach to patient data protection.

Why US Organizations Need This

The United States has seen aggressive enforcement of data protection regulations. HIPAA violations can result in fines up to $1.5 million per violation category per year. State attorneys general are actively pursuing CCPA violations. Professional liability insurers are beginning to ask about AI governance during underwriting.

The risk is not hypothetical. It is a matter of when, not if, enforcement catches up with informal AI usage. Organizations that implement technical safeguards now will be positioned as leaders, not laggards.

United States: Frequently Asked Questions

Cazimir is a technology that supports a HIPAA-compliant AI strategy. By acting as a technical safeguard to prevent PHI from being transmitted to non-BAA-covered AI systems, it helps covered entities meet their obligations under the HIPAA Security Rule. Achieving Cazimir Certified status demonstrates that such a safeguard is in place.

No. Cazimir is designed to be stateless. It inspects data in real-time and removes PHI before the prompt is transmitted. The original, sensitive data is never logged, stored, or retained by our systems.

By enforcing data minimization at the point of use, Cazimir helps organizations meet the principles of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and other state laws. It provides a technical guarantee that consumer PII is not being used for an undisclosed purpose (i.e., training a third-party AI model).

Any organization that handles sensitive personal data and uses AI tools. This includes law firms, healthcare providers, financial institutions, accounting firms, and insurance companies.

Cazimir is designed to be tool-agnostic, operating seamlessly with major generative AI platforms including OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, and Anthropic’s Claude.

For most organizations, firm-wide deployment and certification can be completed in less than five business days.

Yes. Our Enterprise plan allows for the configuration of custom identifiers and proprietary data formats to meet the specific needs of your organization.
