A rights management approach to protection of privacy in a cloud of electronic health records
Mohammad Jafari, Reihaneh Safavi–Naini, Nicholas Paul Sheppard · 2011
A patient-centric DRM approach is proposed for protecting privacy of health records stored in a cloud storage based on the patient's preferences and without the need to trust the service provider. Contrary to the current server-side access control solutions, this approach protects the privacy of records from the service provider, and also controls the usage of data after it is released to an authorized user.
