For the (medical) digital work environment and especially for encrypted communication, existing but still unestablished standards are used.

The knowledge of these standards will be made available to a preferably large user group. Through the transfer of technology, the necessary processes and the required role concepts, a user related public key infrastructure(s) will be created. Furthermore, new tools based on open source are currently being designed and implemented. The faculty of health sciences strives to contribute to an evolution where data protection and encryption (privacy by design) is not only an exception but a standard.
