Description / Abstract:
This part of ISO 17090 defines the basic concepts underlying the
use of digital certificates in healthcare and provides a scheme of
interoperability requirements to establish a digital
certificate-enabled secure communication of health information. It
also identifies the major stakeholders who are communicating
health-related information, as well as the main security services
required for health communication where digital certificates may be
required.
This part of ISO 17090 gives a brief introduction to public key
cryptography and the basic components needed to deploy digital
certificates in healthcare. It further introduces different types
of digital certificates -identity certificates and associated
attribute certificates for relying parties, self-signed
certification authority (CA) certificates, and CA hierarchies and
bridging structures.
