title: A secure Web-based medical digital library architecture based on TTPs.
abstract: In this paper, a secure medical digital library architecture is presented, that is based on the CORBA specifications for distributed systems. Special attention is given to the distinguished nature of medical data, whose integrity and confidentiality should be preserved at all costs. This is achieved through the employment of Trusted Third Parties (TTP) technology for the support of the required security services.
