Abstract

Today, people grow older than some decades ago. This inevitably leads to an increasing number of commercial players in the healthcare domain. Privacy is a major concern in many eHealth application, especially when sensitive personal data is stored in databases. This paper presents a secure, fair and privacy-preserving solution to enforce the patient’s privacy preferences on his or her personal medical records. The proposed cryptographic tools and protocols are thoroughly explained. Moreover, a prototype implementation validates the concept. Finally, it is shown that a convenient, modular and generic system based on lightweight cryptographic primitives can be realized as proposed.
