TL;DR
The PCASSO project is designed to apply state-of-the-art-security to the communication of clinical information over the Internet, and results of its use by providers and patients are reported.
Abstract
High-assurance systems that serve both patients and providers will need to address differing expectations regarding security and ease of use.
