I was wondering, as medical data is sensitive data, would it be possible to implement attribute encryption to anonymize the fields that could be used to identify a person in case of a leak/security vulnerability or malicious access? Like the name, date of birth, address, email and phone of a patient.
Hello,
I was wondering, as medical data is sensitive data, would it be possible to implement attribute encryption to anonymize the fields that could be used to identify a person in case of a leak/security vulnerability or malicious access? Like the name, date of birth, address, email and phone of a patient.
This articles explains how such a thing could be implemented without having to install a gem: https://pawelurbanek.com/rails-secure-encrypt-decrypt
