Case Study: Spire Healthcare achieves NHS IG and ISO27001 compliance with Egress Switch

Spire Healthcare selects Egress Switch to protect information shared with external third parties and maintain data compliance

Spire Healthcare, a leading UK private healthcare provider with 37 hospitals, needed a simple way for staff to securely share highly confidential patient information with external third parties such as NHS hospitals, clinics, patients, and off-network staff. To meet NHS Information Governance and ISO27001 requirements, the company turned to Egress Switch for email and file encryption.

Egress implemented Egress Switch with follow-the-data control, real-time auditing, revocation, and configurable policy-based encryption. The solution helped Spire secure external communications, restrict recipient actions when needed, and stay compliant with NHS IG policies and ISO27001, supporting the continued success of its NHS partnership.
