Abstract

One of the critical challenges in health information systems is interoperability. The clinical, strategic, and operational decision depends on quality data and the ability to exchange data inter-systems and inter-health organizations. The Semantic Web plays a cornerstone role as a technology to enable functional and semantic interoperability without substantial changes in existing systems and to improve data sharing capabilities and, consequently, its quality and completeness. However, a common concern is data security. In this context, this research proposes a framework for securing health data, with a real case scenario focused on tuberculosis data exchange over the Semantic Web. The needs of security for the Semantic Web were satisfied, helping to build trust in the data and promoting its use in contexts that were not initially created to openly disseminate data without a significant technological apparatus.
