ℹ️Personal Information Management

iPS and DNA are sensitive personal information that needs to be controlled strictly. Therefore, we effectively manage and use iPS and DNA utilizing IPFS (InterPlanetary File System).

IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) is a distributed file system to provide high security and efficiency in data storage and access. IPFS is expected to bring about the following advantages in medical information management.

IPFS encrypts and securely stores patients' medical information (medical records, test results, image data, etc.) in its distribution network, which allows users to store and share medical information. As a result, IPFS enables patients and healthcare professionals to access necessary information easily and quickly

Patient Privacy Protection: IPFS improves the privacy protection of medical information. With its data encryption and access control features, it can only disclose patient information to eligible users.

Data Integrity and Durability: Since IPFS is a distributed system, data redundancy is high, which means data loss and tampering are more complex. This improves the integrity and durability of medical information.

Seamless Exchange of Information: Medical information management systems with IPFS facilitate the exchange of information between different medical institutions and between medical professionals. Therefore, it is anticipated that medical institutions can share patients' medical histories and test results and offer more appropriate treatment and medical care.

Contribution to Research and Public Health: We aggregate medical information through IPFS and then conduct proper access control and privacy protection so researchers and public health officials can tap into the large-scale medical data. This is anticipated to enhance novel treatment development and public health policies.
