Healthcare Information & Cyber Security Management System (ADHICS)
Healthcare Information & Cyber Security Management System (ADHICS)
ADHICS is mandatory in Abu Dhabi and it is enforced, and a generic ISO 27001 toolkit will not map onto it.

Overview
ADHICS, the Abu Dhabi Healthcare Information and Cyber Security Standard issued by the Department of Health, sits structurally close to ISO/IEC 27001 without being identical to it. That near-resemblance is where providers come unstuck: a control an ISO 27001 toolkit answers in general terms is a specific ADHICS requirement, and the space between the two is a finding. This system is written to ADHICS directly, aligned with the Department of Health ADHICS Implementation Guidelines of 9 December 2019, the edition all 43 documents follow. ADHICS V2 (2024) has since replaced them, so check the current controls against the documents before use.
The Information Security Governance Committee is named as the approving authority and the Information Security Manager carries ownership, both built into the approval routing of every document. From there the system works through the ADHICS control structure: risk assessment and treatment, asset management and classification, human resources security, physical and environmental security, access control and identity management, operations and change management, backup and restoration, third party security, incident management, information security continuity, and internal audit with corrective action. The risk register, incident log and asset inventory arrive as working registers, and a Scheme document fixes numbering and classification so the system can be extended without breaking its logic.
What this system covers
- Governance and risk — the Information Security Governance Committee, risk assessment and treatment
- Asset management and classification — asset inventory and the classification of information
- Access control and identity — user, mailbox and application access through to employee separation
- Human resources and physical security — personnel obligations and control of secure areas
- Operations, change management, backup and restoration — controlled change and recoverable data
- Third party and supplier security — pre-engagement and ongoing assessment of vendors
- Incident management and continuity — reporting, investigation and corrective action
- Internal audit and ADHICS self-assessment — verifying controls domain by domain
Who it's for
Hospitals, clinics, diagnostic centres, pharmacies, insurers and health-tech providers operating in Abu Dhabi, their Information Security Managers and CISOs, and the consultants delivering ADHICS compliance programmes. The trigger is a Department of Health compliance obligation that has become urgent, or a self-assessment that exposed how far a generic policy set falls short; the implementation roadmap gives the sequence to work in.
