Measures to ensure patient privacy in our data collection
There are several security measures in place:
- computers/laptops are located in a locked office with limited access
- computers/laptops are eHealth managed and encrypted
- the data collection program CCMDB.accdb and its data back-end CCMDB_data.mdb are password protected
- data is stored on a folder on the Regional Server when possible; only the Data Collectors and the Main office have access to this folder.
