Secure File Transfer for Healthcare and NHS
The ability to share confidential patient records, X-rays or lab results quickly and securely between healthcare departments and associated bodies, is crucial to the standard of service and support provided by the NHS. When it comes to the security of patient data, the NHS trust stipulate three cornerstone principles:
- Information must be secured from unauthorised access – confidentiality
- Information must be safeguarded against unauthorised modification – integrity
- Information must be accessible to authorised users at times when they require it – availability
