Mobile Health (mhealth) applications are widely used applications to monitor our health, well being and daily activities. The privacy and security of personal information while using mHealth apps are of great concerns. In this paper, we propose a method based on HIPAA privacy rule and security rule to analyze mHealth applications. There are total four parts in this method: privacy policy analysis, static analysis, dynamic analysis, and HTTP analysis. Through our analysis, we identify that mHealth applications are not as safe as they are shown in the posted privacy policy. Many mhealth apps could cause damage to personal privacy. |
