- Access controls and audit logs
- Business Associate Agreements (BAA) with all vendors
- Data breach notification procedures
- Regular security risk assessments
GDPR (EU/UK)
European healthcare data requires:
- Explicit patient consent for data processing

UAE Health Regulations
- DOH (Department of Health) standards for Abu Dhabi
- DHA (Dubai Health Authority) requirements for Dubai
