Ensure your organisation’s mobile device management (MDM) framework meets the rigorous security and compliance demands of healthcare information governance with this comprehensive self-assessment tool, aligned to ISO 27799 standards. Designed for information security professionals, risk managers, and healthcare IT leaders, this programme delivers a structured, actionable approach to evaluating and strengthening MDM controls across the full device lifecycle.
Through two targeted modules, you’ll gain clarity on how to effectively map MDM capabilities to critical ISO 27799 control objectives—such as encryption, access control, remote wipe, and audit logging—while aligning with your organisation’s risk appetite and data classification policies. Understand how to define scope across corporate-owned, BYOD, and COPE devices, and ensure enforcement mechanisms support both regulatory compliance and clinical workflow continuity.
- Align MDM controls with ISO 27799 requirements (e.g., 5.24, 8.15, 8.23) and document implementation in your Statement of Applicability (SoA) with clear justifications.
- Conduct robust risk assessments tailored to mobile endpoints handling electronic protected health information (ePHI), factoring in device type, user role, connectivity, and third-party app exposure.
- Define risk-tiered device categories and determine appropriate MDM enforcement levels, including handling of legacy systems where full compliance may not be feasible.
- Strengthen governance by integrating MDM policies with existing information security frameworks and establishing audit-ready logging and monitoring processes.
- Balance security and usability by setting acceptable risk thresholds that support clinical productivity without compromising data protection.
This self-assessment enables healthcare organisations to proactively identify control gaps, reduce exposure to data breaches, and demonstrate compliance during audits. It fosters collaboration between IT, security, and clinical teams to ensure MDM strategies enhance, rather than hinder, operational resilience.
