GemsTracker is designed secure from the ground up and GemsTracker installations regularly undergo penetration tests to bring the GemsTracker software up-to-date on the latest security issues. Out of the box a GemsTracker installation is secure, unless you make it unsafe.

GemsTracker installations that contain real patient data should always use a secure hosting platform that is at least ISO 27001 certified. In the Netherlands the provider should even be NEN 7510 certified.
