  2. Autentication Accessibility Availability Integrity Accountability Confidentiality Liability Legal Framework Privacy Security Requirements

  3. Applied security

  4. New requirements • Safe • Effective • Patient-centric • Just-in-time • Efficient • Equitable Source: US Institute of Medicine

  5. RFID-applications in a Czech military hospitalID System Overview Employees’ Data for ID Payment Attendance Control Access Control Restaurant Staff Canteen Devices Wages Vending Machines Vehicles Ordering

  6. Identity Security Tokens Biometrics Personnel Patients Tracking RFID Personnel Patients Supply Technologies

  7. Technology RFID • Purpose to enable data - usually on the identity of an object to be transmitted wirelessly using radio waves • The RFID tag has a unique serial number which is read remotely by an RFID reader and transferred to a processing device • Passive tags – small and inexpensive – 128 bits – external power • Active tags – larger, battery powered – store 1 MB data – writable • NFC tags – near-field communication – safe two-way interactions via wireless communication limited to literally touching distance

  8. RFID for Improving Care • Daily routine given by caregivers/family – may intervene if not taking medicine • Any change in daily routine may indicate the onset of a serious problem • Tracking medication and medicine supply • Correct drug in correct quantities as prescribed • Ensure integrity of drug by not expose to temperature higher than allowed • Automate lightning and heating of rooms • Elderly may stay at home more safely 6FP: CogKnow

  9. RFID for Persons ID -> people / things • Elderly • Access control & authentication • Controlling blood transfusions • Medication administration & alert • Observing implants • Option for outpatient self-medication • Staff • Access control & authentication Barcode -> RFID Quality

  10. Privacy concerns • Collecting and using personally identifiable information for other purposes without knowledge • Lack of transparency • Abuse of data, captured by anyone • Excessive aggregation of data

  11. Countermeasures • Securing RFID data by encryption and by transmission protocols • Making the user aware of RFID tags • Allow the user to eventually deactivate tags • Omitt the current privacy rules and ethical obligations • Control by Ombudsman

  12. Some Figures (2006) • The World Health Organization estimates that 10 per cent of drugs are forged • 150 persons die in Europe every day due to a hospital acquired infection – mostly spread by not clean hands • Average rate of medical errors is estimated to be around 5 percent • The market for RFID tags is expected to rise from €90 million to €2.1 billion over the next decade • Food industry (Walmart and Tesco) use RFID today for all goods
