Aligned with ISO 27799, it delivers the same rigour and insight as a multi-year consultancy—without the ongoing costs. Build a robust, clinically integrated security framework that supports patient safety, regulatory compliance, and enterprise risk objectives.
This structured assessment equips governance leaders, clinical information stewards, and risk managers with actionable tools to evaluate and strengthen security practices across digital health ecosystems. From electronic health records and medical devices to sensitive research data, ensure all critical assets are identified, classified, and protected in line with international best practice.
- Establish a fit-for-purpose governance model—define accountability through roles such as Data Protection Officer and Clinical Information Security Lead, and embed clinical leadership to ensure controls are operationally viable.
- Align security with global and national regulations, including HIPAA, GDPR, and jurisdiction-specific health privacy laws, mapping requirements directly to ISO 27799 controls.
- Conduct clinical-aware risk assessments that prioritise patient safety, engaging frontline staff in threat modelling for high-risk systems like infusion pumps and PACS.
- Quantify risk tolerance across clinical and administrative environments, document accepted risks, and integrate mitigation plans into change management workflows.
- Report confidently to executive leadership with performance metrics, risk heat maps, and a formal governance charter outlining escalation protocols and review cycles.
Whether your organisation operates under a centralised or decentralised model, this assessment helps you optimise governance structures, close compliance gaps, and align security outcomes with clinical delivery. Built for scalability and real-world application, it enables continuous improvement in response to evolving threats and technological change.
