Case Study: Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust secures confidential patient information and large file sharing with Egress Switch

Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust adopts Egress Switch to protect confidential patient information and large files exchanged with third parties

Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust needed a secure way to share confidential patient information and large files with third parties beyond the NHS, since NHSmail was not available to many external organizations. With more than two million patient contacts a year and extensive research and education activity, the trust required a solution that could protect sensitive data while supporting efficient collaboration.

Egress implemented Egress Switch, a secure email and file encryption platform with large file transfer, domain-based message routing, and integration with secure networks. The trust gained the ability to share information securely and efficiently with full visibility and control, helping staff focus on patient care; the case study highlights immediate results and a cost-effective, intuitive approach to data security.
