How we help you

Three ways to get a grip on your healthcare information security today, from first exploration to year-round control.

No agency. No juniors. One senior specialist.

A traditional agency sells you the senior and sends the junior, who learns at your expense. AuditDirect works the other way around: as an independent platform we match you directly with one self-employed specialist with at least 7 years of experience in your standard. You pay for expertise, not for overhead.

  1. 01

    You submit a request

    In five minutes you tell us where you stand, which standard it concerns and when you want to be certified.

  2. 02

    We match the specialist

    Not whoever happens to be available, but the consultant who already knows your standard and sector. You decide after a no-obligation call.

  3. 03

    You work together directly

    Direct agreements and one fixed point of contact through to the certificate. No layers in between that talk along and bill along.

AuditDirect guides you to NEN 7510 certification

Stap 2

Implementation & Evidence

We arrange the evidence the audit requires.

For those who want to hear the NEN terms: Our Expertise and Jargon Section.

Structured and worry-free toward your NEN 7510 certification. As your expert partner, we guide you from the initial phase to the certificate. We begin with a baseline measurement (gap analysis) to see exactly what is still missing in relation to the standard. Next, we carry out an in-depth risk analysis, specifically focused on the security of patient data and healthcare processes. We conclude the process with the mandatory internal audit and management review.

What does NEN 7510 mean for your healthcare organization?

NEN 7510 is, at its core, nothing more than an agreement: how do we in the Netherlands handle patient data safely? Although the standard consists of hundreds of technical requirements, we translate this for you into three clear pillars:

Privacy first

Trust between you and your client. Only the people who really need to know have access.

Always accessible

Can you access the data at the moment the patient needs care? Your data is there when care calls for it.

Accurate data

Information is always accurate and up to date. Is the data correct and not accidentally changed?

What is mandatory in healthcare around NEN 7510?

Under the law (GDPR) and the Dutch Health Inspectorate (IGJ), you must take 'appropriate measures' to protect patient data. In healthcare, NEN 7510 is the most widely accepted standard. This obligation has two inseparable sides:

The agreements

  • You are required to map where data is at risk and which policy applies to it.
  • Data processing agreements with software vendors are legally required.
  • You must be able to demonstrate that employees are actually trained in working securely.

The execution

  • Access to patient records must be secured with more than a password (e.g. MFA or a UZI card).
  • You must record (and check) who accessed which record and when.
  • Equipment such as laptops and tablets must be encrypted against theft.

Frequently Asked Questions NEN 7510

Is NEN 7510 mandatory for my organization?

If you work in healthcare and process electronic patient data, NEN 7510 is often the standard you must legally comply with (under the GDPR and the Health and Youth Care Inspectorate). Health insurers and municipalities are also increasingly requiring this in procurement processes.

How much time will an NEN 7510 process take for me and my employees?

A traditional process can take months of internal hours. Our solution: we take the documentation burden off your hands. We interview you briefly and clearly, and we turn this into the required policy ourselves.

We already have ISO 27001, isn't that enough?

Not quite. ISO 27001 is the general standard for information security, but NEN 7510 adds specific requirements for healthcare, such as logging of records and specific privacy requirements. Our solution: we do not need to start over.

Do we have to completely change the way we work to get certified?

Absolutely not. Existing processes are often safer than you think; they just are not documented properly. We adapt the standard to your organization, not the other way around.

How long does it take to become certified?

At many firms, this takes a year. We think that is too long. Our solution: through our standardized approach and focus on action, we can make you audit-ready in record time.
