I wanted to briefly explore the #DAML approach to building systems compliant with major healthcare data protection regulations like #HIPAA and #GDPR.
The following are some examples of how DAML is enabling enterprises to build compliant distributed ledger solutions: Consent Data Minimization Encryption Storage Ledger
It’s important to note that “compliance” to these regulations is complicated. Compliance means that the overall architecture, execution and on-going operation of a healthcare solution meets the requirements. It’s not the right or even a sensical question to ask whether DAML, or any other solution component, is HIPAA compliant. Instead, it’s essential to explore the options and tools that DAML provides for solution designers and operators to meet their compliance obligations. The following are some examples of how DAML is enabling enterprises to build compliant distributed ledger solutions.
DAML is an open-source smart contract language designed to build composable applications on an abstract ledger model.
DAML is a high level language that focuses on data privacy and authorization of distributed applications. These concepts are represented first class in the language.
By abstracting data privacy and authorization, DAML takes the burden off the programmer to think about concrete cryptographic primitives and lets her focus on workflow logic.
DAML is a statically typed functional language.
Applications specified in DAML can be deployed on a growing number of platforms including Amazon Aurora , VMWare Concord , R3 Corda , Hyperledger Fabric , Hyperledger Sawtooth , Project DABL and PostgreSQL .
