In the context of EU Horizon 2020 CyberSec4Europe project the medical data exchange demonstrator creates a trusted ecosystem for sharing medical data in a secure and privacy preserving manner.

The personal and sensitive data generated in the health domain including hospitals records, patient records or wellbeing wearable devices (data providers) is growing sharply. This huge amount of health data can be used by health organizations and research laboratories (data consumers) for improving the population’s health. At the same time this information acquire economic value to pharmaceutical industry and insurance companies. These personal and sensitive data needs to be effectively managed in terms of quality, security, and privacy, assuring the integrity and reliability when this information is shared between parties. In the context of H2020 CyberSec4Europe project [L1, L2] the Medical Data Exchange demonstrator addresses these security and data protection challenges to ensure trust between two main actors: the data providers and the data consumers. The use of privacy preserving techniques has been adopted by this demonstrator for creating a trustworthy environment by developing a data anonymisation service (DANS) and a functional encryption service (FE2MED), increasing the user privacy and security when sharing data through a data exchange platform.
