Advisory, Use of Caching, content caching, Cache-Control header
cis

{{site.data.keyword.attribute-definition-list}}

HIPAA advisory

{: #hipaa-advisory}

Use of caching (CDN) for regulated data (for example, PHI, ITAR) is prohibited. All regulated data flows that use {{site.data.keyword.cis_full}} must be set to not cache. {: important} {: shortdesc}

There are multiple ways to disable content caching by the CIS CDN.

  • The origin server can set no-cache in the Cache-Control header for the regulated content
  • Use the {{site.data.keyword.cis_short_notm}} page rules to disable caching for any content on a specified path, even if the origin does not send a no-cache Cache-Control header.
