# How do you achieve HIPAA-compliant encryption on Heroku Postgres?

*Domain Solution · Heroku Postgres*

CipherStash provides field-level encryption for PHI on Heroku Postgres plus a cryptographic audit trail that records every decryption: who, what, when, from where, and in what context. The audit trail is immutable by construction, which gives auditors continuous proof rather than point-in-time snapshots.

## Who's asking

Engineer or compliance owner at a health-tech company storing PHI in Heroku Postgres and needing demonstrable encryption and audit controls.
