The option to register an iPad on your own Care Identity profile has been available for a while. We've now added 3 more authenticator types that you can register on your own profile to authenticate in place of a smartcard. This was added in release 5.70 of Care Identity Management on 19 September 2024.

Read step-by-step guidance on how to register:

• Windows Hello devices
• Microsoft Authenticator devices
• security keys

We've recently introduced security codes via text message to the self-service smartcard unlock application. This was added in release 5.71 of Care Identity Management on 25 September 2024.

We've also updated the step-by-step guidance on how to use self-service smartcard unlock.

View the new DSPT platform, which has changed to adopt the National Cyber Security Centre’s Cyber Assessment Framework as its basis for cyber security and Information Governance assurance.

These changes affect NHS trusts and foundation trusts, integrated care boards (ICBs), clinical support units (CSUs) and arm’s length bodies.

To understand the new requirements and how it impacts your organisation, watch our webinar series or find further guidance.
