Project on securing personal health information associated with HIPAA compliance

Abstract

In this project my aim was to research about how to secure personal health information associated with HIPAA compliance. Firstly, we tried to understand what is HIPAA and how it is connected to health information. Then we tried to find related encryption schemes for health data. Also, it was needed to find authentication schemes in this project. Our goal was to find how to save health data securely in cloud system and how to access that data with proper authentication. All this work was done keeping in mind that everything should be HIPAA compliant.
