# How do you achieve HIPAA-compliant encryption on Timescale?

*Domain Solution · Timescale*

CipherStash provides field-level encryption for PHI on Timescale 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.
