Patient Care Cannot Stop. Neither Can Your IT.

Clinics, medical centres, specialist practices, dental facilities, and diagnostic laboratories in Dubai operate under strict DHA licensing and an increasingly demanding cybersecurity regulatory landscape. Your IT is not a back-office function — it is directly connected to your ability to deliver care, protect patient privacy, and maintain your operating licence.

Healthcare IT regulation in Dubai 2025

DHA, NABIDH, and ADHICS Have Raised the Bar.

The Dubai Health Authority oversees digital transformation across more than 1,500 licensed facilities and manages over 9.5 million patient records through NABIDH. All DHA-licensed facilities must connect to NABIDH and follow stringent security protocols aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27799. In Abu Dhabi, ADHICS v2 mandates firewalls, MFA, encryption, regular risk assessments, and incident response planning. Non-compliance risks fines, licence suspension, and operational shutdown.

Pain points

What We Know You're Dealing With

Clinical System Downtime Disrupts Patient Care

When EMR fails, prescriptions can't be issued and clinical records can't be updated. We provide SLA-backed IT AMC with priority response for clinical environments and proactive monitoring of critical systems.

DHA NABIDH Compliance and Information Security

Many smaller clinics operate in a compliance gap with NABIDH and DHA infosec standards. A DHA inspection that identifies inadequate controls risks the facility's licence. We implement the technical controls and document compliance for inspection readiness.

Patient Data Security and Ransomware Risk

Healthcare is the primary global ransomware target. We deploy Bitdefender, SonicWall, network segmentation, MFA, and automated encrypted offsite backup with tested recovery.

Staff Using Personal Devices to Access Patient Data

A lost personal device with patient data on it triggers a mandatory breach notification. We deploy MDM and Conditional Access so only approved, compliant devices can access clinical systems.

No Tested Backup and Disaster Recovery

An external drive in the same room as the server is not DR. We deploy offsite encrypted backup, automated daily routines, regular recovery tests, and documented BCP for DHA compliance.

Medical Device Network Security

PACS, infusion pumps, and connected diagnostics on unsegmented networks are major attack vectors. We segment medical device networks and assess connected device security as part of our healthcare AMC.
