Pharmaceuticals & Life Sciences

In a validated environment, who did what - and the unbroken trail proving it - is a licence-to-operate requirement, not a nice-to-have.

The pressure

What this sector is up against

Regulated pharmaceutical and life-sciences operations run validated GxP systems - LIMS, MES, QMS and manufacturing controls - where data integrity and complete, attributable audit trails are a licence-to-operate requirement under 21 CFR Part 11, WHO-GMP and Schedule M expectations. Access to these systems by staff, contract manufacturers and equipment vendors must be unique, controlled and fully logged, and inspectors expect the ALCOA+ principles to hold across every privileged action.

Frameworks that apply

21 CFR Part 11 WHO-GMP / Schedule M GAMP 5 ISO 27001 DPDP Act 2023

How Tanflow helps

Controls mapped to this sector's reality

Attributable, named-user access (ALCOA+)

Every action on a validated system is tied to a unique identity - no shared logins on LIMS, MES or QMS.

Privileged access to validated systems

Administrative access to GxP databases and application servers is vaulted, justified and recorded end to end.

Lab & manufacturing vendor supervision

Equipment and software vendors work through time-boxed, scoped, recorded sessions instead of standing accounts.

Tamper-evident audit trails

Append-only session and command logs support the data-integrity evidence inspectors expect.

DPDP and GxP-ready evidence

Replays and access-review reports retained and exportable for regulatory and customer audits.

In practice

The LIMS upgrade and the software vendor

A LIMS vendor needs database access to apply a validated patch. With Tanflow: QA grants a time-boxed JIT window tied to the change control; the vendor connects through the browser gateway under a named identity with credentials they never see; changes to controlled data are recorded and destructive operations blocked; the session closes with the window. When the auditor asks for the data-integrity trail on that change, it is a replay away.

Business outcomes

What it means for the business

Security, compliance and efficiency in the same motion - the results leadership and auditors both care about.

  • Attributable, ALCOA+ access to validated GxP systems
  • Data-integrity audit trails that stand up to 21 CFR Part 11 inspection
  • Lab and manufacturing equipment vendors supervised and time-boxed
  • Regulatory and customer audits answered from evidence that already exists
  • Shared logins on validated systems eliminated by design
