Frameworks
Healthcare security simplified with NEN 7510
Patient data breaches destroy trust and trigger regulatory consequences that threaten your healthcare practice.
Tidal secures your patient information. Implement healthcare-specific security controls, protect electronic records with proven best practices, and maintain compliance with Dutch healthcare requirements.
NEN 7510 in depth
NEN 7510 is the Dutch standard for information security in healthcare. The standard focuses specifically on protecting medical and health data and aligns with legislation and supervision within the healthcare domain.
In practice, NEN 7510 is often approached as an obligation or certification process. This shifts focus to documentation and audits, while structural ensuring of information security in care processes lags behind.
By applying NEN 7510 as a management system, coherence emerges between care processes, risks, and security measures. Information security thus becomes an integral part of the healthcare organisation.
