Security in Clinical Information Systems - Dr Ross Anderson (1996)   (6 citations)  (Correct)

....However the incidence of such attacks is low, and competent Internet service providers will provide a firewall to make them hard. A much greater risk is that the computer system will be physically stolen from the surgery; over 10 of general practitioners have experienced computer theft [PK95]. We must therefore draw a distinction between vulnerabilities (things that could go wrong) and threats (things that are likely to go wrong) Note that other writers use these two words with their meanings reversed. However, such disputes are peripheral to our present concerns. Threats vary in ....

An Update on the BMA Security Policy - Anderson (1996)   (3 citations)  (Correct)

....in many government systems in Britain, the EU [39] and elsewhere. 2 The Gathering Storm We were not to know it at the time, but the NHS Executive had projects underway to build systems that are in serious conflict with medical ethics as understood by both doctors [31] 32] and patients [17] 36] [59]. If security rules are adopted that enforce this traditional view, then these systems will require significant changes (which we discuss below) So, with the benefit of hindsight, it is not at all surprising that the response we received from the NHS Executive was limited to nitpicking [47] ad ....

A Security Policy Model for Clinical Information Systems - Anderson (1996)   (33 citations)  (Correct)

....malicious failure, it is clearly possible (in the absence of comsec mechanisms) for outsiders to intercept or modify messages. But most reported attacks on clinical information systems consist of the physical theft of the computer from a surgery, with over 11 of British GPs having suffered this [PK95], The majority of other attacks on system integrity are likely to be carried out by insiders. In typical cases of which we are aware, attackers have tried to shift liability by altering a record of malpractice [Ald95] to abuse prescription systems [JHC94] or to commit straightforward theft or ....
