  • Abstract
    As use of the internet has become wide spread, many good effects are seen but the adverse functions are also found. One of these adverse functions is the unnecessary personal information exposure. This issue may be a significant problem because there is the potential for so many people to see the information if the information is disclosed by mistake by its collector such as internet service provider. Information can also be disclosed by the person who holds a superior role in the system, namely, the system administrator. Internet users have paid special attention to this issue caused by the fact that many of the operations and transactions that they carry out through the internet can be easily recorded and collected. Thus, identity disintegration has become a desirable feature to be implemented in a database management system. In this paper, we propose an identity disintegration mechanism that is intended for use in the healthcare field.
