This page shows the technical details of what happened when the authorised researcher Millie Green requested one or more actions to be run against real patient data within a secure environment.

By cross-referencing the list of jobs with the pipeline section below, you can infer what security level the outputs were written to.

The output security levels are:

  • highly_sensitive
    • Researchers can never directly view these outputs
    • Researchers can only request code is run against them
  • moderately_sensitive
    • Can be viewed by an approved researcher by logging into a highly secure environment
    • These are the only outputs that can be requested for public release via a controlled output review service.
