At AdvaHealth Solutions, we understand that the security and privacy of patient data are non-negotiable. We employ a multi-layered approach to data protection, combining cutting-edge technology with robust policies and procedures to ensure your information remains confidential, secure, and readily available.
Secure infrastructure
- AWS cloud: AdvaPACS leverages the secure infrastructure of Amazon Web Services (AWS), a leading global cloud provider with a strong track record of data security and compliance.
- Data centres: AWS data centres feature multiple layers of physical security, including access controls, surveillance, and environmental monitoring, to protect your data from unauthorised access and environmental threats.
- Network security: AWS provides advanced network security measures, such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and DDoS protection, to safeguard your data from cyberattacks.
Data encryption
- In transit: All data transmitted between your devices and the AdvaPACS platform is encrypted using industry-standard protocols like TLS/SSL, ensuring confidentiality during communication.
- At rest: Your data is encrypted at rest using strong encryption algorithms, protecting it from unauthorised access even if storage media is compromised.
Access controls
- Role-based access control (RBAC): AdvaPACS utilises RBAC to grant access to data based on user roles and responsibilities, ensuring that only authorised personnel can view or modify sensitive information.
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA): MFA adds an extra layer of security by requiring users to provide multiple forms of authentication, such as a password and a unique code from their mobile device, to access the system.
- Audit trails: AdvaPACS maintains detailed audit trails of all user activity, providing visibility into data access and modifications for security monitoring and compliance purposes.
Data backup and recovery
- Regular backups: AdvaPACS performs regular automated backups of your data to ensure redundancy and minimise the risk of data loss.
- Disaster recovery: Our disaster recovery plan includes measures to restore data and system functionality in the event of unforeseen events, such as natural disasters or system failures.
- Data replication: Data is replicated across multiple AWS availability zones to ensure high availability and resilience.
Our commitment to data protection
AdvaPACS is committed to maintaining the highest standards of data protection and privacy. We leverage the robust infrastructure and security measures of Amazon Web Services (AWS) and continually invest in security processes, certifications, and employee training to ensure that your data is always safeguarded.
