BioEP
BioEP is a clinical decision-support tool that analyses background brain activity in routine EEGs to reveal digital biomarkers of seizure susceptibility. By providing an objective risk score, even when no epileptiform is visible, it helps clinicians interpret inconclusive EEGs, improving confidence, reducing diagnostic uncertainty, supporting earlier, more accurate epilepsy diagnosis.
Features
- EEG file upload as EDF file format for real-time processing.
- Patient creation/tracking against EEG uploads.
- Bulk EEG upload and processing.
- Report creation of quantitative rating given to EEG.
- Filter created reports by EEG ratings.
- Email notifications to clinicians once EEG processing is complete.
- Role based user access with audit trails.
- Web browser-based platform
- Multi-factor authentication enforcement for Organisations.
- In platform training and support.
Benefits
- Quantitative rating of EEG even without epileptiform activity present.

The API is assessed on a needs basis and Neuronostics will provide users with a secure API key to access. The API is organised around REST, accepts JSON-encoded request bodies and returns JSON-
encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs.
The API provides functionality to upload a patient EEG along with patient metadata and request analysis. Once analyses complete the API can call a webhook to notify that the report is ready. At which point the user can pull the PDF report via the API. - API documentation

Scaling
- Independence of resources
- Our platform is designed with built-in capacity to comfortably handle spikes in user demand, ensuring that no individual’s activity affects the performance experienced by others. We also use auto-scaling infrastructure that automatically increases resources when usage rises, maintaining a consistent and reliable experience for all users. As demand decreases, the system scales back down, keeping the platform efficient without compromising performance. In addition, we continuously monitor key usage metrics and apply targeted optimisations to ensure the service remains stable, responsive and able to adapt to changing patterns of use.

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
- BioEP platform operates a 99.9% availability guarantee.
- Approach to resilience
- Our service is designed with a resilient, cloud-native architecture that prioritises high availability, self-healing, and fault tolerance. We use containerised workloads running in AWS Fargate, which provides strong isolation and eliminates reliance on fixed servers. Containers are immutable and version-controlled, ensuring predictable deployments and rapid rollback if required. AWS Fargate is configured to automatically monitor the health of each container and replaces any failed tasks without manual intervention. Services are deployed across multiple Availability Zones to protect against localised failures, and traffic is routed only to healthy instances via an AWS load balancer. Autoscaling policies allow the service to respond to increased demand or degraded performance by adding capacity automatically.

We also undertake independent penetration testing on an annual basis and operate established vulnerability and patch management processes.
- Information security policies and processes
- Our organisation adheres to a comprehensive set of information security policies that cover access control, data classification and handling, secure development, incident response, vendor risk management, business continuity, and acceptable use. The Management Representative holds primary responsibility for overseeing and implementing these security measures. This includes managing access control, authorising visitors to secure areas, and maintaining a register of administrative access. We conduct regular security risk assessments for all business processes to identify and implement necessary countermeasures against potential breaches. Our physical and environmental security protocols include secure areas for critical network equipment, protected power supplies, and fire suppression systems. All employees receive security awareness training, and we conduct regular checks and audits to ensure compliance with our established policies. In the event of a security incident, breaches are reported to the Data Protection Officer for investigation and remediation.
- Software Security Code of Practice
- Yes
Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Supplier-defined controls
- Configuration and change management approach
- We maintain a strict separation between development, testing, and production environments to minimise the risk of unauthorised changes. All software promotions from development to production follow an approved change management process, which includes safety risk assessments, security risk assessments and user notification evaluation. To track service components throughout their lifecycle, the Management Representative maintains a detailed inventory of information assets, including software vendors, version numbers, deployment status, and responsible personnel. Changes are assessed for potential security impact through our risk assessment process, which is a mandatory step before any significant change is implemented.
- Vulnerability management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Vulnerability management approach
- A proactive vulnerability management process to identify/ remediate security weaknesses. This includes regular vulnerability assessments of our information systems to evaluate and address associated risks. Maintaining a comprehensive inventory of our information assets, which is crucial for effective vulnerability tracking. Our policy addresses all identified vulnerabilities in a timely manner to minimise potential impact. High-risk or critical security updates for both operating systems and applications are installed within 14 days of their release. Utilise automatic updates wherever possible. For systems where auto-updates are not feasible, we rely on vulnerability alerts from the Security Centre and perform manual patching.
- Protective monitoring type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Protective monitoring approach
- Protective monitoring processes are established to identify and respond to potential security compromises. A combination of automated tools and manual procedures to monitor our systems. Potential compromises are identified through various means - alerts from Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security, AI-powered suspicious behaviour detection, and cloud application monitoring. When a compromise is found, it is immediately investigated/reported to the DPO. We follow a formal incident response procedure, which includes completing an Information Security Incident Report Form and adhering to the protocols. Ensures swift and effective response to all security incidents, minimising potential damage and ensuring timely return to normal operations.
- Incident management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Incident management approach
- Our incident management process follows a pre-defined, documented workflow covering identification, triage, resolution, and post-incident review. Common incident types (e.g. outages, security events, performance degradation) are handled using established severity levels and response checklists to ensure consistency and speed. Incidents are reported through automated monitoring alerts, user reports (via our help desk or directly via email), or internal escalations and are logged in a central tracking system. Communication is managed via internal channels and a public status page with regular updates. After resolution, incident reports and retrospectives are produced to document root cause, impact, actions taken, and improvement measures.
