Apheris is a platform designed to facilitate secure and private collaboration on distributed data for organizations while adhering to regulatory standards. By integrating the Apheris Compute Gateway with your data, machine learning and analytical computations are performed in situ, meaning the data remains in place and is never exposed or moved, thereby preserving its inherent value. This method effectively tackles issues related to data being isolated due to geographical constraints, regulatory requirements, or organizational limitations, as well as challenges posed by moving sensitive or expensive data. Unlike other solutions such as synthetic data, encryption, or data clean rooms that may undermine result accuracy, pose risks of data breaches, or lack the ability to scale, Apheris employs a federated approach. This allows for the development of models across extensive data sets without transferring any data, with a robust framework of governance, security, and privacy ensuring compliance with relevant regulations from the outset. Consequently, Apheris offers a powerful solution that enhances collaboration while safeguarding vital data assets.
