Abstract

This paper presents several smart card security extensions to the FIPS 201 PIV standard of security and authentication of mobile health. Our contributions are designed to better protect the patient's data and to increase the functionality and interoperability of smart cards in health care. Our solution, called SAMSON, consists of two types of smart cards. The first, a security card, is issued to all personnel within any medical organization, while the second, the medical card, is issued to patients and used to securely store and retrieve health care information. These smart cards are being tested within a 14 hospital federated consortium in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. © 2010 IEEE.
