Every inbox is an unstructured repository of PHI: referrals, test results, authorizations, patient communications. When an account is compromised, the attacker gets the entire archive. Material prevents data exposure that native controls and traditional email security tools miss.

01 — The Threat
Why healthcare is account takeover’s favorite target
When an attacker successfully lands in an inbox, they have access to years of email. Three structural realities make PHI-rich inboxes an especially appealing prize.
01
PHI is the highest-value record there is
A stolen medical record sells for far more than a credit card and unlike a card, it can’t be cancelled. Diagnoses, claims, and SSNs stay exploitable for years, so attackers invest more to get them.
02
It all flows through email
Lab results, eligibility files, prior authorizations, and care coordination move through email in Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. One taken-over account exposes thousands of records at once.
03
Perimeter controls aren't 100%
Email gateways protect what’s coming in. Login MFA protects the front door. Nothing protects the data sitting at rest in an inbox.

02 — Why Material
Material provides the containment layer
Material is designed to protect patient data inside email, even after an account takeover. Attacks are contained and it’s simple to demonstrate compliance without expensive investigations.
Purpose-built for healthcare data security needs
Not a gateway retrofitted for the cloud. Material is designed natively for Google Workspace and Microsoft 365, the platforms healthcare actually runs on.
Sees PHI where it really lives
Material indexes inboxes to show exactly where sensitive health data sits and who can reach it.
Authorized access is proven
When an authorized user unlocks a sensitive email using MFA step-up, you have an audit log to show exactly what was accessed and when.
Built for compliance
HIPAA-ready with a signed BAA and SOC 2 Type II with the audit trail and access visibility reviewers expect.
