The starting point
You are preparing to handle sensitive health data
The product works, but data flows, vendor dependencies and access decisions have not been documented together.
Inventory the in-scope flows and trust boundaries, then implement prioritized controls with your security and privacy owners. Use synthetic or de-identified test data where possible.
Illustrative project scenario—not a client case study.
Decisions we work through
- Which data and environments are included?
- Who can access, export or administer it?
- Which vendors and retention decisions need approval?
The agreed flows have documented owners and controls, and the team can demonstrate the selected access and handling scenarios.
