Apheris serves as a collaborative platform that allows organizations to work together on distributed data in a manner that is secure, private, and adheres to regulatory standards. By utilizing the Apheris Compute Gateway in conjunction with your data, machine learning and analytics processes occur directly at the data source, preventing any movement or direct accessibility of the data, thereby preserving its inherent value. This innovative methodology resolves common issues associated with data silos that arise from geographical, regulatory, or organizational constraints, as well as situations where data is too sensitive or expensive to transport. Unlike other methods such as synthetic data generation, encryption, or data clean rooms—which may compromise the validity of results, introduce risks of data breaches, or lack scalability—Apheris employs a federated approach to develop models across entire data cohorts without transferring any actual data. With a foundation built on governance, security, and privacy, Apheris guarantees compliance with regulations from the outset, enabling organizations to leverage their data assets more effectively. Ultimately, this unique strategy not only enhances data usability but also instills confidence among stakeholders regarding data protection and regulatory adherence.
