Governance
Enable secure collaboration in a trusted research environment across institutional, organizational, and commercial boundaries through a comprehensive governance framework.
This includes fine-grained access control, infrastructure transparency, and standards-based compliance, all designed to meet the operational and regulatory requirements of clinical and scientific research.
Align research infrastructure with institutional IT and financial governance.
- Storage integration: Link directly to enterprise storage systems, optimizing cloud spend without moving or duplicating data.
- Compute integration: Orchestrate workflows using your own compute infrastructure, preserving budget control and alignment with enterprise cloud and data strategy.
- Cost transparency: Access real-time estimates of compute (EC2) and storage (EBS) costs prior to and during environment execution, supporting budgeting and reporting.

Ensure infrastructure isolation and operational independence.
Dedicated deployment: Whether using Manifold as a managed or BYOC platform, you operate in a fully isolated environment, reducing the risk of accidental exposure and enabling direct control over access, operations, and monitoring.
Support collaborative research while enforcing data governance policies.
- Attribute-based access control (ABAC): Grant permissions at the folder, table, or metadata-tag level, enabling precise, role-specific access to sensitive data.
- Single Sign-On Identity integration: Connect with institutional identity providers to centralize user management.
- Multi-factor authentication and secure login protocols: Protect system access with standard organizational security controls.

Manifold is compliant with: SOC II Type 2, HIPAA, NIST 800-171, GDPR, Good Clinical Practices (GCP), 21 CFR Part 11, and E-Sign.
- Access and user controls: Designed to allow only authorized users to access specific data and tools, with security features at every level of interaction.
- Comprehensive audit trails: All user actions are logged with secure, time-stamped records to support retrospective review and compliance verification.
- Immutable queries: Each dataset view or analysis slice is captured with full query traceability to enable reproducibility and auditability.
- Electronic signature integrity: Every user action requiring authentication is bound to a unique, traceable signature.
- System validation: Manifold components undergo regular validation to ensure reliability and consistent performance.
- Record retention and reproducibility: Research records are stored in a format that supports long-term retention and reanalysis during audits or inspections.
- Operational protocol enforcement: Built-in system checks guide users through validated task sequences, minimizing procedural deviation.
- Decommissioning protocols: Secure data archives and data migration processes are available for organizations retiring the system, ensuring responsible data stewardship.
