The 1Kosmos Healthcare Opportunity

Healthcare is one of the most active verticals for identity security investment. Credential-based breaches account for a large share of healthcare data incidents. HIPAA Security Rule requirements, DEA EPCS regulations, and the administrative burden of shared workstation environments in clinical settings create specific, high-urgency demand for what 1Kosmos provides.

1Kosmos is the only platform that combines IAL2-certified identity verification with enterprise-grade passwordless authentication in a single architecture that sits on top of existing identity infrastructure. The platform integrates natively with Epic MyChart for patient identity workflows, Microsoft Entra Verified ID for verifiable credential issuance, Okta and Ping for enterprise SSO environments, ServiceNow for ITSM-integrated identity events, Workday for workforce onboarding, and identity governance platforms including SailPoint and Saviynt. Additional integrations span CyberArk, Broadcom, and multiple applicant tracking systems (ATS) for pre-hire identity verification.

Certifications relevant to healthcare customers include:

• NIST 800-63-3 at IAL2, supporting identity assurance requirements for clinical and administrative access

• FedRAMP High authorization, relevant for health systems and payers serving federal programs including Medicare and Medicaid

• DoD Impact Level 4 (IL4), establishing the platform's suitability for sensitive health data environments

• Kantara full CSP certification, one of fewer than a dozen globally, supporting highest-assurance identity proofing workflows

• iBeta PAD Level 2 for liveness detection, directly relevant to anti-spoofing requirements in EPCS logical access control

• SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR compliance

What Success Looks Like

• A qualified pipeline of healthcare opportunities across hospital systems, pharma, and payers is built and maintained with strong coverage ratios.

• Net-new enterprise logos are closed on a consistent quarterly cadence.

• 1Kosmos is recognized as a credible, differentiated vendor in healthcare identity and EPCS workflows.

• Relationships with key health system CISO, CIO, and CMIO stakeholders are established and active.

• Healthcare-specific use case narratives, case studies, and reference customers are developed in partnership with Marketing.
