Health Information System Role-Based Access Control Current Security Trends and Challenges

in engineering •  7 years ago 

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Journal of Engineering -- Research findings on Information Technology - Data Systems are discussed in a new report. According to news reporting out of Sao Paulo, Brazil, by VerticalNews editors, research stated, “This article objective is to highlight implementation characteristics, concerns, or limitations over role-based access control (RBAC) use on health information system (HIS) using industry-focused literature review of current publishing for that purpose. Based on the findings, assessment for indication of RBAC is obsolete considering HIS authorization control needs.”

Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the Federal University of Sao Paulo, “We have selected articles related to our investigation theme ‘RBAC trends and limitations’ in 4 different sources related to health informatics or to the engineering technical field. To do so, we have applied the following search query string: ‘Role-Based Access Control’ OR ‘RBAC’ AND ‘Health information System’ OR ‘EHR’ AND ‘Trends’ OR ‘Challenges’ OR ‘Security’ OR ‘Authorization’ OR ‘Attacks’ OR ‘Permission Assignment’ OR ‘Permission Relation’ OR ‘Permission Mapping’ OR ‘Constraint’. We followed PRISMA applicable flow and general methodology used on software engineering for systematic review. 20 articles were selected after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria resulting contributions from 10 different countries. 17 articles advocate RBAC adaptations. The main security trends and limitations mapped were related to emergency access, grant delegation, and interdomain access control. Several publishing proposed RBAC adaptations and enhancements in order to cope current HIS use characteristics. Most of the existent RBAC studies are not related to health informatics industry though.”

According to the news editors, the research concluded: “There is no clear indication of RBAC obsolescence for HIS use.”
