What is DHA Compliance?
Under Dubai Health Authority regulations, all healthcare facilities, telehealth platforms, health AI systems, and medical data processors must implement comprehensive cybersecurity controls to protect patient health information (PHI). The DHA mandates 25-year data retention with strict confidentiality, NABIDH (National Backbone for Integrated Dubai Health) integration security, and governance frameworks for AI-powered healthcare applications. Non-compliance can result in license suspension, significant fines, and reputational damage.
