Wizuda implement our Compliant File Share software at Pieta House

Pieta House is a non-profit organisation tackling the issues of suicide and self-harm in Ireland. They recently implemented Wizuda’s Compliant File Share Solution (CFS) to securely share confidential information in accordance with GDPR requirements.

Cathy Kelly, Director of Operations and Development for Pieta House said “The security and confidentiality of our data is obviously of paramount importance to us all at Pieta House. With the upcoming GDPR, and its emphasis on accountability, it’s also vital that we can show that we have processes and systems in place to clearly show our full commitment to compliance. We found the implementation and roll out of Wizuda a very straightforward project and the central platform for data sharing that it has given us is not only a key part of our overall GDPR compliance programme but has also delivered significant operational efficiencies.”

Wizuda Commercial Director, Mike Ross, commented “We are absolutely delighted to roll out our solution to Pieta House. They are now a household name in Ireland and the amazing work they do is an inspiration to us all. We’re obviously delighted that our software is helping Pieta House in the areas of compliance and day to day efficiencies and we look forward to continuing to work with them wherever we can help. As can be seen from events in the UK over the last 12 months, where the Information Commissioners Office there have fined a significant number of charities for data breaches, the voluntary sector is not exempt from following data protection laws and we feel that our file share solutions can be a significant aid in maintaining compliance.”

Wizuda’s Compliant File Share (CFS) software is the secure and easy to use alternative to email for file sharing. The Secure File Sharing features coupled with a multitude of Compliance features enables organisations to share files in accordance with the GDPR requirements.

the challenge - wizuda case studies

The board of a multinational medical device organisation required a secure, cloud-based solution which facilitated virtual board member collaboration on key documents in preparation for monthly board meetings.

The documentation was regularly of a highly commercially sensitive nature, largely relating to ongoing clinical trials, and as such demanded a secure and encrypted platform which could be implemented without the engagement of internal IT resources.

Key challenges that need to be  considered:

  • Geographically dispersed stakeholders
  • Highly commercially sensitive documentation
  • No internal IT involvement
  • Multiple stakeholders required to collaborate on
    single documents

Wizuda MFT gave them a centralised view of all their file transfer activities and a network overview of the data flows. IT now had instantly available reporting and could provide geographic maps and network overviews to senior management of all file transfer activities in the organisation. These could also be categorised in ways that made sense for the business from a priorities perspective. Wizuda’s unique ‘Health Check’ dashboard with automated monitoring and alerts, allowed them to manage all transfer operations proactively and ensured they were always on top of any issues.

From a GDPR compliance perspective, transfers could be linked to Data Protection Impact Assessments were required and data could be anonymised as part of the transfer process. Wizuda MFT enabled them to apply the latest security protocols for file transfers and encrypt data at rest and in transit. Passing cyber-security and GDPR compliance audits became a lot easier.
