DATA SECURITY PROTECTION TOOLKIT

Independent assurance against DSPT

The Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT) is an online self-assessment tool that allows organisations to measure their performance against the National Data Guardian’s 10 data security standards.

The Data Security Assessment that Dionach delivers on behalf of NHS Digital provides external assurance for up to 15 requirements of the DSPT.

The Cyber Risk Framework Workshop that Dionach delivers on behalf of NHS Digital provides external assurance for up to 6 requirements of the DSPT.
