NHS Privacy Enhancing Technology (PET)

NHS England is committed to keeping patient information safe and being transparent about how it is used. NHS Privacy Enhancing Technology (NHS-PET) will provide robust protection and deliver a standard approach to support safe data access and use. The first use of the new NHS-PET will be for the Federated Data Platform Programme (FDP).

NHS-PET is a standalone service and will be used across various NHS data platforms, therefore, the supplier will be required to scale the use of the solution across the enterprise.
