KMBIG: Safeguarding Data Sharing with Advanced Anonymization and Risk Management
Icktae Kim, Taehong Kim · 2024
In August 2020, South Korea's data activation legislation was updated, introducing “Guidelines for the Use of Health and Medical Data,” thereby extending its reach to the medical sector. These guidelines delineate crucial protocols for individual medical data use, emphasizing anonymization and mandatory Data Review Committee oversight. Our research proposes a methodology within the KMBIG system for health data utilization, compliant with these stipulations. Through comprehensive analysis, we have developed specific anonymization techniques for various data types, enabling direct validation and swift identifiability risk assessment. The KMBIG system's deployment is anticipated to significantly enhance healthcare data efficacy, aligning with the regulatory framework.
