The Data Security and Protection Toolkit is an online self-assessment tool that allows organisations to measure their performance against the National Data Guardian’s 10 data security standards.
All organisations that have access to NHS patient data and systems must use this toolkit to provide assurance that they are practising good data security and that personal information is handled correctly. This includes trusts, commissioners and CSUs.
For more information on the Data Security and Protection Toolkit, please visit the DSPT portal.
Summary statistics from the DSPT 2020/21 toolkit are shown. The latest status information was downloaded on the 10th October 2021.
Note on method: organisations open 31st March 2021 are considered. However, if the organisation does not have a 20/21 DSPT status, it has been allowed to inherit one from its 21/22 successor organisation (if the successor submitted a 2020/21 return). The same applies for the subsections below.

Below we consider the overall evolution of DSPT status across editions, for trusts open end-financial year 2020/21. Note that below, for trusts resulting from mergers, we do not reflect the status of their predecessors, unless their identifying organisational code has been kept.
Despite showing editions side-by-side, it is important to note that the standards - and the level of evidence required to meet those standards - tend to get raised year-on-year. This means that a similar status in two editions is not directly comparable.

Analytics leverages open source data and R libraries such as leaflet for interactive maps, plotly for other interactive visualisations and summarytools for descriptive statistics.
