| Abstract | Healthcare is traditionally a data-intensive domain, where physicians needs complete and updated anamnesis of their patients to take the best medical decisions. Dematerialization of the medical documents and the consequent health information systems to share electronic health records among healthcare providers are paving the way to an effective solution to this issue. However, they are also paving the way of non-negligible privacy issues that are limiting the full application of these technologies. Encryption is a valuable means to resolve such issues, however the current schemes are not able to cope with all the needs and challenges that the cloud-based sharing of electronic health records imposes. In this work we have investigated the use of a novel scheme where encryption is combined with biometric authentication, and defines a preliminary solution. |
