- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): "Break the Glass" override warnings are routinely bypassed by staff.
- Hidden Telemetry: System access logs record employee IDs, workstation IP addresses, and exact viewing timestamps.
- Legal Rights: Section 170 of the Data Protection Act 2018 makes unlawful record viewing a criminal offence.
