March Newsletter

As Q1 draws to a close, we’re reflecting on a fast-paced and insightful start to the year. From attending Digital Health Rewired to publishing our Geckoboard case study, a ton of NHS DSPT Audits with amazing feedback, congratulations to Lottie and our regular jargon buster and security tip. It’s been a quarter full of connection, learning, and progress.

Periculo at Rewired 2025

We had a fantastic time at Digital Health Rewired at Birmingham NEC earlier this month! Over the two-day event, we met with some truly inspiring digital health and med tech companies, many of whom we’ve recently started working with or have connected with online. It was a pleasure to meet face-to-face and share stories, ideas, and solutions.

We were proud to be part of the Innovation Village, surrounded by passionate teams transforming health and care with digital tools. The Hilton breakfast didn’t hurt either—definitely fuelled us for two full days of talking tech, compliance, and cyber resilience!

A special mention goes to the Rewired Running Club—a great way to network with fellow attendees in a totally different (and energetic!) setting.

As a team, we’ve come away with valuable insights into the digital health landscape, and these learnings will directly shape how we support our clients and partners as we move into Q2.

Client Spotlight: Lottie Achieves ISO 27001 Certification

We’re thrilled to share that our client Lottie successfully passed their ISO 27001 audit on 17th March—a major milestone for their team.

After changes to the internal team managing their ISMS, Lottie reached out to us to help bring their compliance journey back on track. It was no small task—but our team, and their determination, made all the difference.

Huge congratulations to the Lottie team for their commitment to security and resilience. We’re proud to have supported them every step of the way.

Geckoboard Case Study – Final Video Released!

Last month, we welcomed the Geckoboard team to film a case study on how we use their real-time dashboards across security, compliance, marketing, sales, KPIs, website analytics, and social performance.

We’re thrilled to share the final video—a brilliant snapshot of using data visibility to stay agile and focused.

Security Tip of the Month

Did you know?

Healthcare data is significantly more valuable than credit card information on the dark web. A 2024 study found that electronic health records (EHRs) can command prices up to $1,000 each, compared to as little as $5 for credit card numbers. This stark contrast emphasises the urgent need to protect patient information from cyber threats, reinforcing our commitment to safeguarding sensitive data with the utmost diligence.

Jargon Buster

Privilege Creep

This occurs when users accumulate access rights they no longer need over time, increasing the risk of internal threats and data exposure. Keeping access lean is a smart defence strategy.

Ready for Q2? Let’s Secure What Matters Most

As we move into Q2, many companies are turning their attention to key milestones like NHS DSPT compliance, ISO 27001 certification, and security testing to meet contractual, regulatory, and operational goals.
