Scopia

Security & Trust

Built for Healthcare Security Requirements

Scopia is designed so your IT department can say yes. Works out of the box without EHR integration — and offers optional integrations when you're ready. EU-hosted, no patient identifiers, and independently assessed by FinCCHTA.

Independent Assessment

Assessed by FinCCHTA

Scopia has been independently assessed by the Finnish Coordinating Center for Health Technology Assessment (FinCCHTA), a national authority for health technology evaluation.

The assessment was conducted using the Digi-HTA framework, Finland's national evaluation methodology for digital health technologies. It covers effectiveness, safety, data security, costs, and usability — providing an impartial evaluation for procurement decisions.

Security Fact Sheet

What Your IT Team Needs to Know

Scopia is designed to minimise your IT department's workload — not add to it.

EU Data Residency

All data is stored and processed within the EU/EEA on Google Cloud infrastructure. No data leaves the European Economic Area. Encryption at rest and in transit.

GDPR Compliant

Scopia stores no direct patient identifiers. Quality data is linked to endoscopists, not patients. Data Processing Agreement (DPA) available for all customers.

ISO 27005 Risk Management

Risk management follows the ISO/IEC 27005 framework with quarterly reviews. Designated safety incident coordinator and documented risk management process.

Works Without — or With — Integration

Start immediately as a standalone browser-based application. When you're ready, we offer EHR and endoscopy system integrations tailored to your infrastructure.

Continuous Security Testing

Regular vulnerability scanning, dependency monitoring, and cloud infrastructure security monitoring. Role-based access controls. Quarterly security reviews and automated alerts.

99.99% Uptime

Built on Google Cloud with minimal downtime — six minutes total in the past six months. Automated daily backups. Automatic updates with zero disruption to clinical workflows.

Regulatory Simplicity

No MDR. No AI Act. No Complexity.

Scopia is a quality monitoring tool, not a medical device and not an AI system. This means significantly lower regulatory burden for your procurement process.

  • Not classified as a medical device under EU MDR
  • Not subject to EU AI Act requirements
  • No clinical decision support — purely quality monitoring
  • No patient-facing functionality
  • Standard SaaS procurement — no special approvals needed

What Scopia does NOT do

  • Store direct patient identifiers
  • Make clinical decisions or recommendations
  • Use AI for diagnosis or detection
  • Require on-premise infrastructure
