This research addresses the implementation of encryption and digital signature technique for electronic health record to prevent cybercrime such as robbery, modification and unauthorised access. In this research, RSA 2048-bit algorithm, AES 256-bit and SHA 256 will be implemented in Java programming language. Secure Electronic Health Record Information (SEHR) application design is intended to combine given services, such as confidentiality, integrity, authentication, and nonrepudiation. Cryptography is used to ensure the file records and electronic documents for detailed information on the medical past, present and future forecasts that have been given only to the intended patients. The document will be encrypted using an encryption algorithm based on NIST Standard. In the application, there are two schemes, namely the protection and verification scheme. This research uses black-box testing and whitebox testing to test the software input, output, and code without testing the process and design that occurs in the system.We demonstrated the implementation of cryptography in SEHR. The implementation of encryption and digital signature in this research can prevent archive thievery.

Inadequate audit mechanisms may result in undetected misuse of data in software-intensive systems. In the healthcare domain, electronic health record (EHR) systems should log the creating, reading, updating, or deleting of privacy-critical protected health information. The objective of this paper is to assess electronic health record audit mechanisms to determine the current degree of auditing for non-repudiation and to assess whether general audit guidelines adequately address non-repudiation. The authors analyzed the audit mechanisms of two open source EHR systems, OpenEMR and Tolven eCHR, and one proprietary EHR system. The authors base the qualitative assessment on a set of 16 general auditable events and 58 black-box test cases for specific auditable events. The authors find that OpenEMR satisfies 62.5% of the general criteria and passes 63.8% of the black-box test cases. Tolven eCHR and the proprietary EHR system each satisfy less than 19% of the general criteria and pass less than 11% of the black-box test cases.

National legislation is in place to facilitate reform of the United States health care industry. The Health Care Information Technology and Clinical Health Act (HITECH) offers financial incentives to hospitals, physicians, and individual providers to establish an electronic health record that ultimately will link with the health information technology of other health care systems and providers. The information collected will facilitate patient safety, promote best practice, and track health trends such as smoking and childhood obesity.
