Mechanism for inserting / updating and security preservation in anonymous Medical Database
Vidya Rajasekaran, A. Natrajan · 2013
Privacy is a vital issue in Information security sector. The medical information's collected from several donors are sensitive and remains as an invaluable treasure for research factions. This invaluable data need to be secured with high security measures guarantying maximum privacy for each individual patient. If the data's are not conserved the donors will never further update their records in the system and the research people can't prolong their work which in turn is a loss to the society. In this paper a new protocol PCM (Privacy and confidentiality for Medical Database) is proposed for preserving privacy for the patient database system. This protocol is designed focusing on the data anonymization process and defines mechanism for inserting and updating the database without breaking the privacy of the system. The system is planned with Microsoft visual basic .Net as front end and MS Access as backend.
