Due to the confidential nature of the work carried out, security is very important. We helped CEMACH attain the stringent section 60 data protection approval from the Department of Health and ensure their network maintains a high level of security. Shona Golightly, Director of Development & Analysis at CEMACH says "For a small organisation like ours the prospect of implementing and maintaining an IT Infrastructure across 11 sites with state of the art security was quite a challenge.
