Abstract

A method is disclosed for processing patient-based data sets, which each include medical data and sensitive patient data as plain data. The sensitive patient data of each patient-based data sets are anonymized to generate anonymized patient-based data; test data from each patient-based data set is generated from the respective sensitive patient data and incorporated in the respective patient-based data set via an algorithm; anonymized patient-based data sets and the test data are made available in a cloud computing architecture; sensitive patient data about a patient is predefined within the context of processing a specific patient-based data set on a client computer attached to the cloud computing architecture and enquiry data is generated from the predefined sensitive patient data via the algorithm; and a security function is triggered if the test data from the specific patient-based data set does not agree with the enquiry data about the selected patient.

Dependent claims

A method for processing patient-related data records each including medical data and sensitive patient data as plain data, the method comprising:

anonymizing the sensitive patient data in each patient-related data record, thus producing anonymized patient-related data records;
generating test data from respective sensitive patient data in each respective patient-related data record with the aid of an algorithm and incorporating the test data in the respective patient-related data record;
providing the anonymized patient-related data records containing the test data in a cloud computing architecture;
predefining sensitive patient data relating to a selected patient on a client computer, connected to the cloud computing architecture, during processing of a patient-related data record, and generating query data from the predefined sensitive patient data with the aid of the algorithm;
and
triggering a security function if the test data in the patient-related data record do not match the query data relating to the selected patient.
