About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

Join us for a practical webinar designed to help care providers strengthen their Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT) policies & processes. This session will explore IT Systems & Devices.

This session is designed to support care providers in tackling challenges that many providers face in completing the IT Systems and Devices section of the Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT).

We will walk through each requirement in this section, explaining what is expected and showing how to meet the standards in practice. The session will include step-by-step guidance and practical demonstrations on how to:

  • Set up multi-factor authentication
  • Remotely track and wipe data from mobile devices in case of loss or theft
  • Encrypt laptops, tablets, other devices and documents
  • Enable private browsing features for safer internet use
  • Review and improve the strength of your passwords
  • Maintain and optimise device performance
  • Back up important data and test that backups work correctly to ensure data can be recovered if needed

By the end of the session, you will not only be more confident in completing this section of the DSPT, but also better equipped to protect your organisation against cyber threats.
