A GP practice catching up on a lapsed DSPT submission
A busy general practice had let its toolkit slip after a change of practice manager, leaving a lapsed status while it depended on GP Connect and the Electronic Prescription Service every day.
The practice restored a current Standards Met status and protected its ongoing access to national NHS systems.
Read the example →Cyber Essentials for a GP practice strengthening its DSPT

The practice achieved Cyber Essentials and used the verified controls to reinforce several DSPT technical assertions.
