The aim is to provide a trustworthy platform that enables the implementation of medical use cases involving medical end devices (consisting of sensors and actuators) and cloud-based data processing in a secure, data protection-compliant, effective and efficient, inexpensive and durable manner.
The aim is to develop a secure and trustworthy platform for medical applications. In doing so, the entire processing chain is to be enabled, starting with the collection of medical data by sensors, through its (cloud-based) processing and the resulting control of medical devices. One challenge that is being addressed as part of the project is the consideration of certification requirements in the area of medical devices. Accordingly, extensive security measures are being developed that take into account both end devices and cloud-based data processing.
In addition to securing communication, this also includes solution modules for medical data processing in the cloud, with a particular focus on data protection and data security. For example, we are working on solutions that enable trustworthy processing of medical data even if the cloud operator is not trustworthy. Components for anonymizing data are also being developed. In addition, processes are being developed that enable medical data to be analyzed using machine learning methods without having to disclose patient data. Overall, this serves to enable future-oriented medical research while at the same time safeguarding patient data protection.
The development of a device (Medical Gateway Platform) that establishes a secure connection from medical devices to the cloud as well as enabling trustworthy processing of medical data directly on site is an additional goal. This prevents particularly sensitive medical data from falling into the wrong hands.
These aims are being implemented as a collaboration between companies and research partners with many years of experience in the field of medical systems and the development of secure and trustworthy data processing solutions.
