Data Security

Vula places great importance on the security of all the information we are entrusted with. We regularly review and implement up-to-date administrative, physical, technical and organisational security measures and have obtained our Cyber Essentials Plus certification verifying that the cybersecurity and information security policies, processes and procedures of our organisation are at an exceptional standard.

Vula has also obtained our HIPAA Seal of Compliance through The Compliancy Group, a healthcare industry third party HIPAA verification provider. The HIPAA Seal of Compliance verifies and validates that companies have made a good-faith effort to satisfy HIPAA requirements and have the documentation to illustrate this. The three components of HIPAA security rule compliance require organisations processing patient data to keep this data safe and secure, and to exercise best practices in administrative, physical, and technical security.

Vula healthcare data is FHIR/HL7 compliant. The Azure hosted data Interoperability API is ready to integrate with existing IT healthcare systems to provide real-time access to vital patient care information.

Our Vula Platform, comprising both the Mobile Application and Web Portal, are developed using secure technologies with Privacy by Design and Security by Default principles at the forefront of their architecture. The Platform can only be accessed using strong access control protocols, and only by Vula approved and validated users.We advise all our users to have due regard for, and have implemented, generally accepted information security practices when utilising the Mobile App and Web Portal in order to assist in securing the Vula Platform, their own user accounts, own Personal Information, and the Patient Personal Information and Special Personal Information processed therein.
