| Περίληψη: | It has been generally agreed that the security of electronic patient records and generally e-health applications must
meet or exceed the standard security that should be applied to paper medical records, yet the absence of clarity on
the proper goals of protection has led to confusion. The primary purpose of this study was to investigate
appropriate security mechanisms, which will help clinical professionals and patients discharge their ethical and
legal responsibilities by selecting suitable systems and operating them safely and in short order. Thus, in this paper
we propose a security model based on XML with the intention of developing a fast security policy mostly intended
for mobile healthcare information systems. The proposed schema consists of a set of principles based on XML
security models through the use of partial encryption, signature and integrity services and it was implemented by
means of a web-based m-health application in a centralized three-tier architecture utilizing wireless networks
environment. Several experiments took place with the aim of measuring the client response time implementing a
number of m-health scenarios. The results showed that the response times required for the ful?lment of a client
request with the XML security model are smaller compared to those corresponding to the conventional security
mechanisms such as the application of SSL. By selectively applying con?dentiality and integrity services either to
the medical information as a whole or to some sensitive parts of it, the obtained results clearly demonstrate that
XML security mechanisms overwhelm those of SSL and they are suitable for deployment in m-health applications. |
