RE: Millions of patient data records could be easily accessible in the internet!

in #infosec5 years ago

Hahaha! Good one!

I've just used these German, possibly easy breachable systems as an example. Issues like that of course aren't limited to a specific country or region but you knew that already. :-)

To me really scary is the fact that all kinds of "data collectors" sell patient data collected for instance to google (for example project Nightingale).

People just don't know what they get themselves into with most of these "user agreements" and "terms of usage" or willfully signing away the right to access their health care records to hospitals, doctors and other institutions that turn around to sell these records to others. You never know where your health history might show up on/in.

Cheers!

Indeed. Any concentration of data with perceived value will always attract the attention of both commercial exploiters and data thieves.
