The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
14、committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with
15、the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft Internati
16、onal Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be t

New models of healthcare delivery are emphasizing the need for patien
20、t information to be shared among a growing number of specialist healthcare providers and across traditional organisational boundaries.Healthcare information concerning individual citizens is commonly interchanged by means of electronic mail, remote database access, electronic data interchange, and o
21、ther applications. The Internet provides a highly cost-effective and accessible means of interchanging information, but it is also an insecure vehicle that demands additional measures be taken to maintain the privacy and confidentiality of information. Threats to the security of health information t
22、hrough unauthorised access (either inadvertent or deliberate) are increasing. It is essential to have available to the healthcare system reliable information security services that minimise the risk of unauthorised access.How does the healthcare industry provide appropriate protection for the data c
23、onveyed across the Internet in a practical, cost-effective way? Public key infrastructure (PKI) and digital certificate technology seek to address this challenge.The proper deployment of digital certificates requires a blend of technology, policy, and administrative processes that enable the exchang
24、e of sensitive data in an unsecured environment by the use of “public key cryptography” to protect information in transit and “certificates” to confirm the identity of a person or entity. In healthcare environments, this technology uses authentication, encipherment, and digital signatures to facilit
25、ate confidential access to, and movement of, individual health records to meet both clinical and administrative needs. The services offered by the deployment of digital certificates (including encipherment, information integrity, and digital signatures) are able to address many of these security iss
26、ues. This is especially the case if digital certificates are used in conjunction with an accredited information security standard. Many individual organisations around the world have started to use digital certificates for this purpose.Interoperability of digital certificate technology and supportin
27、g policies, procedures, and practices is of fundamental importance if information is to be exchanged between organisations and between jurisdictions in support of healthcare applications (for example between a hospital and a community physician working with the same patient).Achieving interoperabili
28、ty between different digital certificate implementations requires the establishment of a framework of trust, under which parties responsible for protecting an individuals information rights may rely on the policies and practices and, by extension, the validity of digital certificates issued by other
29、 established authorities.Many countries are deploying digital certificates to support secure communications within their national boundaries. Inconsistencies will arise in policies and procedures between the certification authorities (CAs) and the registration authorities (RAs) of different countrie
30、s if standards development activity is restricted to within national boundaries.Digital certificate technology is still evolving in certain aspects that are not specific to healthcare. Important standardisation efforts and, in some cases, supporting legislation are ongoing. On the other hand, health
31、care providers in many countries are already using or planning to use digital certificates. This International Standard seeks to address the need for guidance of these rapid international developments.This International Standard describes the common technical, operational, and policy requirements th
32、at need to be addressed to enable digital certificates to be used in protecting the exchange of healthcare information within a single domain, between domains, and across jurisdictional boundaries. Its purpose is to create a platform for global interoperability. It specifically supports digital cert
33、ificate-enabled communication across borders, but could also provide guidance for the national or regional deployment of digital certificates in healthcare. The Internet is increasingly used as the vehicle of choice to support the movement of healthcare data between healthcare organisations and is t
34、he only realistic choice for cross-border communication in this sector. ISO 2013 All rights reserved vBS ISO 17090-1:2013ISO 17090-1:2013(E)This International Standard should be approached as a whole, with the three parts all making a contribution to defining how digital certificates can be used to
35、provide security services in the health industry, including authentication, confidentiality, data integrity, and the technical capacity to support the quality of digital signature.ISO 17090-1 defines the basic concepts underlying the use of digital certificates in healthcare and provides a scheme of
36、 interoperability requirements to establish digital certificate-enabled secure communication of health information.ISO 17090-2 provides healthcare specific profiles of digital certificates based on the International Standard X.509 and the profile of this specified in IETF/RFC 3280 for different type
37、s of certificates.ISO 17090-3 deals with management issues involved in implementing and using digital certificates in healthcare. It defines a structure and minimum requirements for certificate policies (CPs) and a structure for associated certification practice statements. ISO 17090-3 is based on t
38、he recommendations of the informational IETF/RFC 3647, Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificate Policy and Certification Practices Framework, and identifies the principles needed in a healthcare security policy for cross border communication. It also defines the minimum levels of securit
39、y required, concentrating on the aspects unique to healthcare.Comments on the content of this International Standard, as well as comments, suggestions, and information on the application of these standards may be forwarded to the ISO/TC 215 secretariat.vi ISO 2013 All rights reservedBS ISO 17090-1:2
