Data Security

Data Security

• The Person Centred Software servers are hosted by Microsoft in their Azure cloud service. The data is stored within the EU to ensure that GDPR and data protection security standards are not breached.
• Data on the servers is both backed up and replicated within the EU data centre network. To achieve this, we use the Microsoft Azure Geo Replication service.
• The Azure service is always fully up to date with the latest security patches and virus definition updates, ensuring further compliance with GDPR data protection legislation.

Are lessons learned when there are data security breaches?"
