All our security policies, processes and regular reviews are mapped to the ISO 27001 standard and monitored through our Drata automated monitoring platform.
Under our current governance system we have assigned Security and Privacy Officers. These roles are not standalone and currently sit with personnel in other executive roles (primarily due to organisational size). The executive team also conducts a security review on a quarterly and annual basis.
All security policies and plans have an assigned author and reviewer and are reviewed on an annual basis. - Information security policies and processes
-
All our security policies and processes are mapped to the ISO27001 standard. We use an automated security platform called Drata to automate monitoring of controls and security weaknesses as well as ensure all staff are complying with those policies. We also use this platform to automate review, follow up and task allocation for security policy process and review.
Med App has executive level staff that are responsible for privacy and security. These staff report directly to the CEO.
Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Supplier-defined controls
- Configuration and change management approach
-
Our processes are defined in our Change Management policy which includes details of configuration management and the configuration management plan.
Briefly, this includes using configuration management tools within our cloud provider to standardise and automate configuration, ensuring there is a clear chain of approval that is required for all changes moving through the environment hierarchy, automated tooling to generate documentation and record previous versions and a rigorous testing regime that includes the use of automated testing services and human based testing that includes assessment of potential security issues. - Vulnerability management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Vulnerability management approach
-
Our approach to vulnerability management is defined within our Vulnerability Management Policy.
Briefly, vulnerabilities are assessed on an ongoing basis using automated platforms such as Drata Agent, AWS scanning and security testing tools, Auth0 scanning and security testing and Cloudflare scanning. Additional periodic security scans of systems are done using a combination of external open-source and commercial vulnerability testing tools.
Patches are deployed in line with our policy depending on the severity level. from Critial (within 24 hrs) to Low (using best efforts).
Information about threats are obtained from the assessment platforms used as well as regular management security reviews. - Protective monitoring type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Protective monitoring approach
-
Our approach is determined by relevant policies including Vulnerability Management Policy, Incident Response Plan and Disaster Recovery Plan.
Potential compromises may come from automated scanning tools, customer notifications or internal identification.
Response times will depend on the severity level of the compromise or incident. However once notification of a potential compromise has occurred the relevant policy will be activated and assessed accordingly. Generally though, our response to any potential compromise (regardless of potential severity) is immediate and a fix or patch is worked on until resolved. Regular communications are always maintained with affected customers. - Incident management type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Incident management approach
-
Our incident management approached is defined within our Incident Response Plan.
All potential incidents are dealt with according to this plan as there are not common events that occur within our platform that meet the level of an incident.

Ensuring all healthcare professionals are capable, confident and efficient in their work. Given significant clincian burnout from the pandemic and future staff shortages it is essential that health services continue to deliver solutions that support all clinicians, education and administrative staff to deliver the best care possible. Med App is focused on improving clinician practice and wellbeing.Wellbeing
As a software as a service tool focused on ensuring healthcare professionals are capable, confident and efficient in their work, we believe a key component is being able to deliver wellbeing information and resources alongside practical information that helps make them better at their job. We provide easy access to local wellbeing information and resources, ensuring people feel free to access this information and also provide evidence based baseline wellbeing information where needed. Given the significant clinician burnout and workforce shortages it is essential that healthcare organisations deliver solutions that support them rather than hinder.
