Cloud and Big Data opportunities for health

The Information Technology Institute (ITI) of Valencia held the second edition of its VLCSOFTING event, a forum where the software is the protagonist and in which trends, methods and technologies of Web environment, Mobility, Internet of Things and Big Data were shared.

Carlos Sahuquillo, IT Security Consultant at GMV Secure e-Solutions, conducted an imaginative and original presentation about Cloud Security under the title: "The cloud is not cotton". The creative approach of its intervention to provide an overview of the services and facilities offered by the cloud, and also analyzing the need to know their vulnerabilities and risks, was applauded by the audience.

As concluded the consultant of GMV "Technically, the cloud is not secure, as it faces challenges such as access control, centralization of data and information security. You have to go a long way contemplating aspects regulations and standards, information flows, certifications... and analyze before undertaking the challenge if our organization is ready for it."

In the panel discussion that they made during the event titled: "Big Data Paralysis by Analysis", Rubén Villoria, Development Consultant of Health, presented the success story of HEXIN, the exploitation platform of clinical and epidemiological data of the Galician Health Service developed with GMV technology. His speech aroused great interest since it is the only platform of this nature deployed in a region.
