Cloud Computing: Scalable and Secure Sharing of Personal Health Records Using...dbpublications
Personal health record (PHR) is an emerging patient-centric model of health information exchange, which is often outsourced to be stored at a third party, such as cloud providers. However, there have been wide privacy concerns as personal health information could be exposed to those third party servers and to unauthorized parties. To assure the patients’ control over access to their own PHRs, it is a promising method to encrypt the PHRs before outsourcing. Yet, issues such as risks of privacy exposure, scalability in key management, flexible access, and efficient user revocation, have remained the most important challenges toward achieving fine-grained, cryptographically enforced data access control. In this paper, we propose a novel patient-centric framework and a suite of mechanisms for data access control to PHRs stored in semi trusted servers. To achieve fine-grained and scalable data access control for PHRs, we leverage attribute-based encryption (ABE) techniques to encrypt each patient’s PHR file. Different fr previous works in secure data outsourcing, we focus on the multiple data owner scenario, and divide the users in the PHR system into
multiple security domains that greatly reduces the key management complexity for owners and users. A high degree of patient privacy is guaranteed simultaneously by exploiting multi authority ABE. Our scheme also enables dynamic modification of access policies or file attributes, supports efficient on-demand user/attribute revocation and break-glass access under emergency scenarios. Extensive analytical and experimental results are presented which show the security, scalability, and efficiency of our proposed scheme.
Tackling big data with hadoop and open source integrationDataWorks Summit
The document discusses Talend's goal of democratizing integration and big data. It describes how big data involves transactions, interactions and observations from diverse sources, requiring a different approach than traditional data integration. Talend aims to make big data accessible to everyone with its open source Talend Open Studio for Big Data, which improves the efficiency of designing big data jobs with intuitive interfaces and generates code to run transforms within Hadoop. Poor data quality in big data projects can magnify problems, so Talend recommends incorporating data quality checks into loading processes or via separate map reduce jobs.
SwiftKnowledge advocates a hybrid approach to high performance business intelligence that optimizes performance throughout the entire user experience. This approach uses an in-memory session cache to store user session data for quick access, an incremental data loader that only retrieves small packets of data on demand, a metadata cache for fast retrieval, and connection pooling for efficient database access. Together these provide faster performance than solely relying on in-memory databases.

It then discusses how taxonomy and metadata provide structure to unstructured information and how taxonomy is often realized through applying metadata to documents. The benefits section notes that business taxonomies provide front-end visibility, usability, simplicity, and consistency across content.
A Pragmatic Strategy for Oracle Enterprise Content ManagementBrian Huff
The document outlines seven steps of a pragmatic strategy for enterprise content management (ECM): 1) Create a center of excellence team to govern ECM initiatives, 2) Assess the current environment and label existing systems as strategic, tactical, or replaceable, 3) Consolidate content from replaceable systems into strategic repositories, 4) Federate control of tactical systems to the strategic repositories using federation tools, 5) Secure information wherever it exists using security tools like information rights management, 6) Unify structured and unstructured strategies using tools that extract structure and integrate systems, 7) Plan for the future with 3-year plans to assess storage needs as content volumes grow rapidly over time.
A Pragmatic Strategy for Oracle Enterprise Content Management (ECM)Brian Huff
This is a new way of looking at how to manage unstructured content across your enterprise. Its what we call a \"Pragmatic ECM Strategy,\" and is the focus of my second book.
The document discusses making content easy to find through effective metadata strategies and content modeling. It notes that as digital content expands rapidly, better information organization is needed to improve access. Metadata provides a way to organize large amounts of content and is critical for effective search and records management. The document provides examples of metadata standards and tags that can be used to classify and describe different types of content.
InfoFusion is an information access platform from OpenText that allows users to discover, analyze, and act on information from across an organization. It connects to different data sources, extracts metadata, and provides a unified search index. The roadmap outlines expanding connectors, search and analytics capabilities, and embeddable user interface components over the next three years. It aims to address issues like information silos, complex IT environments, and the need to access both structured and unstructured data.
a.k.a.® softwaresupporting innovation in information governanceThe Synercon Group
The document discusses information governance software called a.k.a.® and how it has evolved over time to address changing needs and technologies. It describes how a.k.a.® was designed to allow subject matter experts to build metadata schemes and taxonomies, transform them into machine-readable formats, and support database design standards. It also summarizes how a.k.a.® can help organizations innovate by capturing different types of metadata, building rules into metadata models, performing online publishing and digital transitions, and enabling both manual and automated classification.
Content management involves managing all types of digital information throughout its lifecycle, including text, images, video, and more. It encompasses content creation, organization, storage, search, retrieval, preservation, and other functions. Effective content management helps organizations reuse content, integrate information sources, improve communications, and gain productivity benefits. However, most business information exists as unstructured data, which poses management challenges. Trends include growing volumes of web content, use of content management in more channels, and demand for better handling of unstructured information.
CentreView is a solution that allows users to search across both electronic and physical records stored in different systems. It provides a consolidated search results list encompassing information from a Microsoft SharePoint repository and physical records stored in an organization's records centers. Users can then view and interact with electronic documents directly or request physical records. CentreView brings together disparate forms of information management typically addressed separately.
Unstructured and unmanaged "dark data" occupies costly storage space and carries security risks for many organizations. Recommind's Axcelerate Data Management solution uses machine learning to automatically categorize this dark data based on its content and meaning. This helps organizations understand what data should be kept, migrated to different storage, or can be deleted, reducing information risks and storage costs. The solution leverages existing taxonomies and creates new ones, and its proven predictive governance processes provide a defensible method for data disposition.
The document discusses the importance of metadata for managing and organizing digital records and information within organizations. It defines metadata as "data that describes other data" and explains that metadata allows users to locate, evaluate, and discover information without having to rediscover it each time. The document outlines different types of metadata including descriptive, structural, and administrative metadata. It emphasizes that metadata needs to be carefully designed and applied according to standards to ensure information is properly maintained and accessible. Metadata plays a key role in organizing information, enabling search and discovery, facilitating data archiving and preservation, and allowing interoperability between different data sources.
Seven Ways Concept-Based Auto Categorization Tames Big DataSteven Toole
Concept-based auto categorization analyzes documents based on their conceptual content rather than keywords to categorize large volumes of documents and emails. It can identify redundant, outdated, or trivial documents for disposal to reduce clutter. It improves information sharing, records management, compliance, and reduces risks by identifying sensitive data. The benefits include better content management, improved information findability across languages and organizations, and harnessing the value of big data while reducing its negative impacts.
SunGard’s Data Profiling Service
The service allows organisations to review the data held in Windows environments, enabling them to determine their value to the business and to identify those which can be deleted, archived or retained in the live environment.
Gilbane 2009 -- How Can Content Management Software Keep Pace?weisinger
The amount of data stored is growing at a phenomenal rate. This paper documents the growth and suggests that a new standard, CMIS, may be useful in getting better control over data and data repositories.
The document describes several potential metadata use cases, including reporting/analytics, desktop accessibility of metadata definitions, and governance workflows. It provides examples of actors, system interactions, and sample data for each use case. The use cases are presented to demonstrate how they can address common challenges with metadata solutions projects.
This use case describes a metadata governance workflow where an authorized user can create a new business term, submit it for approval, and approvers can then review and approve the term to publish it for other users. The system tracks the status of business terms and only approved terms are visible to general users. Notifications are sent during the approval process.
This document discusses improving metadata in SharePoint to better organize content and improve search capabilities. It notes that companies often fail audits due to poor content organization. The solution presented is Pingar, a tool that automatically extracts keywords and other metadata from documents as they are uploaded to SharePoint to populate metadata fields. This improves search, compliance, and user adoption by reducing the need for manual metadata entry. Pingar works by analyzing document text with language processing to identify important terms and entities to tag documents with.
Automated Data Mapping: Defensible Information Governance for E-Discoverysarahbrown1
An automated data mapping system can help companies create and manage an effective data map to facilitate e-discovery compliance. The key benefits of an automated data map include making it easier to locate all relevant data sources for litigation in a timely manner, reducing costs, and ensuring data maps stay up to date as corporate data and systems change over time. Implementing an automated data mapping system involves defining objectives, identifying data sources, analyzing the information collected, and maintaining the data map through automated updates.
This document provides an overview of cloud computing options and considerations for migrating to the cloud. It discusses infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS) deployment models. It also covers assessing the current environment, defining the migration scope, and customizing the migration approach and destination environment. The document emphasizes understanding business needs, having a plan for flexibility as capabilities evolve rapidly, and using migration as an opportunity to restructure content and optimize storage.
Information and Integration Management VisionColin Bell
The vision of the Information and Integration Management team at the University of Waterloo captured on a single 'poster' page. Covers: Data Management Environment, Mission + Vision, Information Asset Base, Information Lifecycle, Document Management, Metadata/Meaning, Integration Platform, and Innovation Platform.
The document discusses the objectives and functions of the CEIN data management server (DMS) including knowledge base creation, data repository, document archiving, data and document sharing, and public access to CEIN data. The DMS provides file versioning, data security, workflows for uploading, reviewing and approving data/documents, and linking of files through metadata. It enables data/document sharing, advanced search capability, collaboration features, and secure file versioning and workflows to ensure data quality. The DMS is web-accessible with automated tracking and approval of uploaded files and can automate data/document downloading to interface with modeling tools.
