11、25237:2008(E) iv ISO 2008 All rights reservedForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each memb

12、er body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Ele

13、ctrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adop

14、ted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a techn

15、ical committee may decide to publish other types of document: an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members of the parent committee casting

16、 a vote; an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical committee and is accepted for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee casting a vote. An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether

17、 it will be confirmed for a further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an International Standard or be withdrawn. Attention i

19、08 All rights reserved vIntroduction Pseudonymization is recognised as an important method for privacy protection of personal health information. Such services may be used nationally as well as for trans-border communication. Application areas include but are not limited to: secondary use of clinica

20、l data (e.g. research); clinical trials and post-marketing surveillance; pseudonymous care; patient identification systems; public health monitoring and assessment; confidential patient-safety reporting (e.g. adverse drug effects); comparative quality indicator reporting; peer review; consumer group

21、s; equipment maintenance. This Technical Specification provides a conceptual model of the problem areas, requirements for trustworthy practices, and specifications to support the planning and implementation of pseudonymization services. The specification of a general workflow together with a policy

22、for trustworthy operations serve both as a general guide for implementers but also for quality assurance purposes, assisting users of the pseudonymization services to determine their trust in the services provided. This Technical Specification also defines the interfaces to pseudonymization services

23、 to ensure interoperability between pseudonymization service systems, identity management systems, information providers and recipients of pseudonyms. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 25237:2008(E) ISO 2008 All rights reserved 1Health informatics Pseudonymization 1 Scope This Technical Specification c

24、ontains principles and requirements for privacy protection using pseudonymization services for the protection of personal health information. This technical specification is applicable to organizations who make a claim of trustworthiness for operations engaged in pseudonymization services. This Tech

25、nical Specification: defines one basic concept for pseudonymization; gives an overview of different use cases for pseudonymization that can be both reversible and irreversible; defines one basic methodology for pseudonymization services including organizational as well as technical aspects; gives a

26、guide to risk assessment for re-identification; specifies a policy framework and minimal requirements for trustworthy practices for the operations of a pseudonymization service; specifies a policy framework and minimal requirements for controlled re-identification; specifies interfaces for the inter

27、operability of services interfaces. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
