Maler’s Presentation: Chip-to-Cloud Security and Privacy: New Standards
As the Internet of Things becomes deeply woven into clinical settings, the holes in security and privacy protection are ever more obvious. A comprehensive solution must extend from chip to cloud and be based on a standardized architecture that includes digital identity and consent. In this session, Maler will demonstrate a scenario maintaining the data security chain through the root of trust of a new healthcare device and enabling patient consent for selective sharing to providers and payers.

“At a time when research shows 87% of patients are unwilling to comprehensively divulge all medical information due to privacy and security issues, it’s critical to establish a proper trust relationship among patients, care providers, telecare devices and digital services,” said Eve Maler, VP of Innovation and Emerging Technology at ForgeRock. “The two critical pieces for accomplishing this are authenticated identity and consent management. ForgeRock is working with partners to deliver solutions for doing this in a way that lets valuable ecosystems grow.”
