Development And Application Of Privacy-Preserving Distributed Medical Data Integration System

The privacy protection technology is crucial to utilize big data in the medical field. Privacy-preserving Distributed Data Integration (PDDI) is one of the encryption techniques to match and integrate medical records held in multiple organizations while preserving privacy. The PDDI method is superior to other existing methods in terms of computational complexity and data versatility. This article provides an overview of the PDDI protocol. We also introduce newly developed Web-based applications that make it easier for researchers and healthcare professionals to use the PDDI protocol.
