Why Patient Data Protection Matters
Patient data is among the most sensitive types of data. Leaks can cause psychological and social harm to patients and expose clinics to severe legal liability under Egypt's Personal Data Protection Law No. 151 of 2020.
Practical Steps
Start by assessing your current state: strong passwords, encrypted devices, protected WiFi, and staff cybersecurity training. Most breaches happen due to simple human errors.
Conclusion
Patient data protection is not just a legal obligation but the foundation of trust between doctor and patient. Invest in a secure system and train your team continuously.
