Explore a critical 59-minute conference talk from the 38th Chaos Communication Congress (38C3) examining Germany's upcoming nationwide electronic health records system. Learn about the automatic enrollment of 73 million insured Germans into a centralized electronic patient file (ePA) starting January 2025, marking a shift from the previous opt-in model. Analyze Health Minister Karl Lauterbach's claims about unprecedented security standards protecting sensitive medical data, including findings and medication lists across medical practices and hospitals. Delve into security architecture concerns and data protection challenges, following up on discussions from 36C3's previous examination of the electronic health records system. Presented by Martin Tschirsich and Bianca Kastl, this German-language talk critically examines the government's assertion that "such a system has never been hacked before" and explores why "trust cannot be decreed."
