End-to-end trusted communications infrastructure

A method of providing secure transmission of medical information via a trusted end-to-end communication link, comprising:

• receiving, by a processor executing in a trusted security zone of a mobile access terminal, an input that is obtained via at least one sensor, wherein the trusted security zone includes a hardware root of trust and a secure partition that receives the input, wherein the input comprises medical data;
• preventing, by execution of the processor in the trusted security zone, applications outside of the trusted security zone from executing on the mobile access terminal, wherein applications that execute outside of the trusted security zone are blocked from accessing the secure partition that received the input;
• generating, by a secure application stored in the secure partition and executing on the processor in the trusted security zone of the mobile access terminal,
• a message based on the input, and
• a trust token for transmission via a trusted end-to-end communication link that comprises a plurality of network nodes and a wireless communication link, wherein the trusted end-to-end communication link provides handling of the message in a corresponding trusted security zone of each network node along the trusted end-to-end communication link;
• and
• transmitting, by the mobile access terminal via the trusted end-to-end communication link, the message and trust token to a medical data server that receives the message by an application that executes in a trusted security zone of the medical data server, wherein the medical data server is one endpoint in the trusted end-to-end communication link with the mobile access terminal and is another endpoint for a second trusted end-to-end communication link to a trusted security zone of a computer system that provides secure access to medical information.
