Security

At Improval, we take security extremely seriously. We use industry-standard measures to protect information from loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. While no system is ever 100% secure, we continually monitor and improve our safeguards to ensure your data remains protected.

  • Access controls: Only individuals who require access to perform their role are permitted to view personally identifiable information.

  • Awareness: All staff and contractors are trained and kept up to date on our security and privacy practices.

  • Infrastructure: Servers and data are hosted in a secure environment with encryption in transit and at rest.

NHS DTAC Compliance

Improval has completed the NHS Digital Technology Assessment Criteria (DTAC) self-assessment. This provides assurance to healthcare partners that our platform meets the required standards in clinical safety, data protection, technical security, interoperability, and usability/accessibility.

We are:

  • Cyber Essentials certified (ISO 27001 in progress).

  • Hosted on AWS London, following NHS Cloud First and Internet First policies.

  • Compliant with UK GDPR and preparing a full submission to the Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT).

  • Embedding best practice in clinical safety, with AI feedback clearly labelled as educational only and not clinical advice.

  • Working towards WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards.

A full DTAC pack is available to NHS organisations and partners on request.
