Clinical trials and health-related research more generally often involve the collection of different categories of data, including structured (clinical and non-clinical) and non-structured data (e.g. imaging, interview recordings). In order to collect this information effectively and securely, sponsors or Clinical Research Organisations (CRO) regularly make use of systems, applications and services provided by third-party suppliers.
