Designed specifically for healthcare environments, this self-audit framework delivers the rigour and depth of a multi-phase consultancy engagement—without the complexity or cost.
Gain clear visibility into your security posture across both clinical and administrative systems, with structured guidance to assess asset classification, access governance, third-party risk, incident response readiness, and ongoing monitoring practices. This programme empowers your team to conduct thorough, compliant audits that align with international best practice and jurisdictional requirements such as HIPAA and GDPR/Health.
- Establish a healthcare-specific audit framework—define scope, secure executive sponsorship, and set clear authority for accessing critical systems like electronic health records (EHR), while respecting clinical workflows.
- Map controls to ISO 27799 with precision, integrating existing risk assessments to prioritise high-impact areas such as patient data repositories, interfaced medical devices, and shared clinical platforms.
- Identify and classify all data assets, including mobile devices, legacy diagnostic equipment, and cross-departmental systems like lab information services, ensuring complete coverage and accountability.
- Protect personally identifiable health information (PHI) throughout the audit lifecycle with robust handling protocols for evidence collection, storage, and reporting.
- Resolve discrepancies between IT and clinical asset records to eliminate blind spots and strengthen governance across every touchpoint of patient data.
Whether conducted internally or by accredited assessors, this self-assessment programme builds organisational capability, enhances compliance readiness, and strengthens trust in your data security practices. It’s not just about meeting standards—it’s about delivering safer, more resilient healthcare.
