Baltimore has announced that HealthBridge Ltd of South Africa has chosen Baltimore's e-security technology to enable secure authenticated real-time message switching between Medical Aids and doctors in South Africa.
HealthBridge is a provider of internet-based transaction and information products to the medical industry.
Baltimore technology (as used in the South African healthcare deployment) signs and encrypts messages on delivery, and verifies and decrypts messages on receipt.
This makes secure transactions over the internet possible as no unauthorised party is able to change or view the content of messages.
