Also note that the private Convox console is completely optional. You can achieve all of this with the free a…

HN discussionYeah... HIPAA is definitely tough. I'd check out https://www.aptible.com if you haven't already. It will at least help out with the infrastructure side of things. Although it does seem like Heroku is offering some services that help too ( https://blog.heroku.com/announcing-heroku-shield ). It's definitely not enough alone, but at least gets you going on the security & compliance aspects.
