Get More on DSP Compliance

Do you find yourself asking…

  • In 2018, the Data Security and Protection Toolkit, or the DSP Toolkit, replaced the Information Governance Toolkit, also known as the IG Toolkit. Using the DSP Toolkit, U.K.-based organizations can compare their practices to the 10 data security standards set forth by the National Data Guardian, an appointed individual responsible for advising healthcare organizations how to secure and use National Health Service (NHS) patients’ confidential information.


    Technology and data security best practices are constantly evolving. Consequently, DSP Toolkit requirements are frequently reviewed and updated to ensure they reflect current data security standards.


    Each year, every organization with access to NHS patient data and NHS systems must use this online self-assessment tool and review and submit their DSP Toolkit assessment before the deadline. By submitting a DSP Toolkit assessment, organizations can demonstrate that they have handled personal data appropriately and engaged in strong data security practices over the past year.
