Protecting what matters most: Patient data, fertility centre integrity, and customer confidence
In the fertility and healthcare sectors, data isn’t just information – it’s deeply personal, highly sensitive, and often irreplaceable. At IMT Matcher, we recognise the immense responsibility that comes with handling this data. That’s why our commitment to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 accreditation is more than a compliance milestone – it’s a promise to our customers and their patients.
What is ISO 27001?
ISO 27001 is the internationally recognised standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). It ensures that organisations like IMT:
- Protect data confidentiality, integrity, and availability
- Comply with legal and regulatory requirements
- Mitigate risks through structured security controls
For IMT, this means embedding security into every aspect of our operations – from product development to internal processes – and undergoing regular independent audits to maintain accreditation.
Why it matters for Matcher
IMT Matcher is used in fertility centres and donor banks where embryologists and lab teams handle patient records, donor profiles, and treatment data. These environments demand the highest level of data protection. ISO 27001 accreditation demonstrates that:
- We embed security into our product design and development
- Our internal systems and networks protect both customer and employee data
- We are resilient against cyber threats and evolving risks
The positive impact on fertility centres, donor banks and patients
By choosing Matcher, fertility centres and donor banks benefit from:
- Peace of mind knowing their systems meet global security standards
- Operational efficiency through secure, streamlined workflows
- Patient confidence in how their data is handled and protected
- Reduced risk of human error through automated, traceable processes
For patients, this means their fertility journey is supported by technology that respects their privacy and safeguards their future.
Beyond compliance
ISO 27001 isn’t just a badge — it’s a culture of security. At IMT, we:
- Train staff in security awareness
- Encrypt sensitive data
- Restrict access through role-based permissions
- Monitor and review risks continuously
Security is not optional. It’s essential. And at IMT, it’s built into everything we do.
