After May 2018’s introduction of GDPR, NHS data centres need to assure maximum security and compliance. Crown Hosting’s Hybrid Cloud and Private Cloud framework is best-in-class when it comes to security, resilience, and both energy and carbon efficiency across the entire UK Public Sector. Our campuses are a central part of the Cabinet Office framework agreement, meaning that whilst you benefit from state-of-the-art security and flexible contract options, you also benefit from the best possible value for money.

With GDPR on the horizon, the NHS have been nervous about how their data is hosted. But with the impressive public-sector bodies already using the Crown Hosting Framework, the Trusts made the leap; data resides in the UK which gives us, and should give the customer, confidence in their data security.
