Secure data is when you protect your data from others. This means protecting your data from forces
such as a cyberattack because this could result in data being lost or stolen by others. It is important
to ensure that data is secure when sharing information because it minimises the risk of being shared
with others. The impact of not keeping data secure is that it increases the chance of data being used
by others for fraud or identity theft.
Only share information in the best interest of the patient or service user. This means you should only
share information that relates to someone’s wellbeing and health. It is important to ensure data is
secure because this means that someone will get important information regarding a patient. The
impact of sharing information that is not in the best interest of the patient means that a patient may
take a decision that is not beneficial to them.
Only share the section of information that is important. Sharing information that is important this
means efficiency is being provided to a patient. This is because when you are sharing information to
another patient then only necessary and relevant information should be shared. It is important to
ensure data is secure because information may be given unauthorised access. The impact of not
doing this is that effective communication is not taking place. When you are communicating with
others it is important that only necessary information should be shared.
Data anonymization – this is when you protect information by ensuring that any of the information
cannot be sourced to a person. It is important to ensure data is secure because someone may find
out your identity or personal information. The impact of not doing data anonymization is that it
means that your information and identity is not safe. Data anonymization is very important because
it means that information is encrypted and protected.
Password protect – you use a password in order to gain entry. Only people that know the password
will be able to use the laptop or computer this shows that it is good method to share the
information. It is important to ensure data is secure to ensure that your data is not at risk of being
hacked. The impact of not using password protect is that it means anyone is able to access your
laptop and see any information. Without any security anyone is able to see your personal
information.
Send sensitive information on separate documents - this means sending information that needs to
be protected which is divided into documents. It is important to ensure data is secure especially
when sending information because it needs to be protected. Sending sensitive information is not a
good method because there is no security. The impact of not doing this is that you are not providing
yourself with protection because there is security such as encryption.
