Data Security and Governance

'Data protection by design'

Data security is of paramount importance, which is why all Sentinel's solutions feature in-built data protection and settings to help organisations comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Caldicott Principles and other controls relating to the use and sharing of personal or sensitive personal information.

Built using a ‘Data Protection by Design’ approach, our innovative systems safeguard individuals’ privacy and security and ensure compliance by ensuring access is strictly controlled and audited.

Key features and benefits

Built-in data protection
All data collected by our Hub is protected by default and can be fully encrypted.

Controlled access
Standard users never see, or gain access to, the central hub. Instead, they view the information they need via individually-configured portal screens.

Automated alerts
Portal screens can be set up to issue alerts and warnings, without revealing potentially confidential source data.

Full access history
All data access history is logged enabling clients to track which records have been viewed, any amendments that have been made and when new records have been created.

Data in one place
No data is downloaded or stored on remote devices. Instead, it is held centrally within the Data Hub.

Secure hosting
Like all our solutions, the Sentinel Data Hub can be easily integrated, either with existing IT networks or a secure cloud that is hosted remotely.
We offer PGA-accredited hosted environments to provide Offical (IL2 - IL3) services for personal and sensitive personal solutions, using our G-Cloud framework hosting partners. The data centres we use are accredited to IL3 and appropriate to IL4 for physical security.
