ADHICS Privacy Alignment
Mapping and closing the privacy-specific gaps between your security posture and ADHICS requirements.
A focused alignment programme for healthcare and healthcare-adjacent entities, connecting the privacy obligations under PDPL with the technical and governance controls required by the Abu Dhabi Healthcare Information and Cyber Security (ADHICS) standard.
ADHICS is a security standard, but a significant share of its control requirements — access governance, data classification, third-party management, incident handling — are privacy questions in disguise. Treating ADHICS purely as an IT security project misses the accountability and data-subject-rights obligations that sit alongside it.
- Map ADHICS control requirements against your existing privacy and security controls to find true gaps, not duplicated effort.
- Align data classification, access governance and third-party controls across both frameworks.
- Build the evidence base auditors expect to see for both ADHICS certification and PDPL accountability.
- Coordinate with your existing security team so privacy and security workstreams reinforce, not duplicate, each other.
- —An ADHICS-to-PDPL control mapping, with clearly identified true gaps
- —A joint remediation roadmap sequenced for audit readiness
- —An evidence pack structured the way ADHICS auditors expect to review it
- —A briefing for your security and compliance teams on where the two frameworks intersect
5–8 weeks, run alongside your existing ADHICS certification timeline.
Healthcare and insurance CISOs, Compliance leaders and DPOs preparing for ADHICS audit or renewal.
We are not a general cyber consultancy applying a privacy label to ADHICS work. We start from the data subject's rights and work back to the control, which is what auditors are increasingly testing for.
