Die elektronische Patientenakte soll bald kommen. Doch der Chaos Computer Club warnt: Kriminelle könnten sich Zugang zu mehr als 70 Millionen Akten verschaffen – auf einen Schlag.
The main conceptual idea of the text is that while the German government and Gematik promote the electronic patient file (ePA) as secure, cybersecurity experts from the Chaos Computer Club (CCC) warn of critical security vulnerabilities in the system that could expose millions of patients' data.
The CCC criticizes the system's insecure configuration, both in healthcare institutions and through service provider access, allowing potential criminals to potentially access over 70 million patient files. They also question the government's decision to implement the ePA despite these risks, emphasizing it as a flawed "experiment" imposed on most citizens.
While Gematik insists the ePA is secure, citing a favorable Fraunhofer Institute report, the CCC labels it a "hallucinated false diagnosis."They continue to warn of potential risks and emphasize the need for stronger security measures.
