@inproceedings { , title = {SPoC: Protecting Patient Privacy for e-Health Services in the Cloud}, abstract = {The use of digital technologies in providing health care services is in general subsumed under the term e-Health. The Data Capture and Auto Identification Reference (DACAR) project provides an open e-Health service platform that reinforces the integrity, security, confidentiality and auditability of medical data throughout their life-cycle. This paper presents the design and implementation of the core component of this platform, namely the Single Point of Contact (SPoC). A SPoC is essentially a security authority that provides claim-based authentication and authorisation functionalities, and facilitates the development and integration of secure e-Health services hosted within a Cloud Computing environment.}, isbn = {978-1-61208-179-3}, note = {Note: paper presented at The Fourth International Conference on eHealth, Telemedicine, and Social Medicine, eTELEMED 2012, January 30 - February 4, 2012 - Valencia, Spain School: iidi}, pages = {99-104}, publicationstatus = {Published}, url = {http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4992}, keyword = {360 Social problems & social services, HN Social history and conditions.
