Case Study: DNA Worldwide secures biological test results with Virtru

DNA Worldwide secures DNA test results with Virtru and GDPR-compliant encryption

DNA Worldwide, a UK-based provider of DNA and medical testing for the court system, needed a secure method to communicate highly sensitive and time-sensitive test results to clients and legal representatives. Their challenge was to ensure this private health data was protected without creating cumbersome access barriers for recipients. They turned to the data security vendor Virtru and implemented its products for Gmail encryption.

Virtru's solution provided automatic email encryption and integrated with DNA Worldwide's CRM system via the Virtru Data Protection Gateway to secure all outgoing sensitive data. This allowed the company to meet GDPR compliance standards while ensuring clients could easily access urgent information without new logins. The result was the maintenance of trust through the safeguarding of private health data everywhere it was shared. According to the founder, Virtru's support was instrumental throughout the testing and company-wide rollout process.
