medical data security, digital transformation, e-Health services, standardisation of e-Health process, GDPRAbstract
The paper assesses the security of medical data processing in the standardization of e-Health solutions in the European Union. First, the main cyber risks are identified, and then the effectiveness of health data protection and its interoperability between ICT systems is analysed in terms of strategy and regulatory support provided by the EU. The study indicates that the provisions of the GDPR seem to enhance processing of technological standardisation of e-Health solutions to follow the principle of technological neutrality when defining the required security measures.
