Encryption notes

As part of PHI/PII removal, the script 00.renameDicomStoreExports-dicomDirSessions.sh renames session directories that have been exported from the PHI/PII-encumbered DICOM store. The session-level directory names exported from the DICOM store are expected to contain acquisition dates because of the way DICOMs are stored in the PHI/PII-encumbered DICOM store. When that is true, this anonymizing script becomes encumbered by a record of the renaming operation: it links the anonymous session ID with its acquisition date (e.g. mv cda001_20120325 cda001pre).

Therefore this script is stored encrypted by AES256 with high-entropy password, and only decrypted for editing and execution on hosts approved for sensitive data.

Encryption:

$ gpg \
--cipher-algo AES256 \
--armor \
--symmetric \
00.renameDicomStoreExports-dicomDirSessions.sh

Decryption:

$ gpg \
-o 00.renameDicomStoreExports-dicomDirSessions.sh \
--decrypt \
00.renameDicomStoreExports-dicomDirSessions.sh.asc
