Framework: HIPAA

Okta backup and disaster recovery for HIPAA

HIPAA Administrative and Technical Safeguards require documented controls and contingency planning for the identity layer that gates PHI access. Butterfly is the disaster-recovery layer for that identity layer.

Scope

In-scope control families

  • 164.308(a)(1) — Security Management Process
  • 164.308(a)(7) — Contingency Plan
  • 164.312(a)(1) — Access Control

Coverage mapping

How Butterfly maps to HIPAA

164.308(a)(7)(ii)(A) — data backup plan

Scheduled, encrypted, point-in-time Okta backups with retention per plan.

164.308(a)(7)(ii)(B) — disaster recovery plan

Restore preview + dry-run + readiness score; restore is provable, not theoretical.

164.308(a)(7)(ii)(D) — testing and revision procedures

Restore preview is non-mutating; the operation is audit-logged and shows up in the Audit Pack.
