(s) Integrity

NIST Test Procedure for §170.302 (s) Integrity

Fail (6/6). File:Data Integrity.pdf Failure Reason: The hashing algorithm currently in use is MD5. The standard requires an algorithm at last as strong as SHA-1. According to Wikipedia SHA-1 has 51 bits of effective security, while MD5 has less than 21. In fact, (unsalted) MD5 collisions can be found in seconds on GHz-class 32-bit PCs.

Currently implemented poorly in OpenEMR. Please edit this page to include information about the implementation location in the source tree.

Per ICSA:

As long as you can demonstrate that the hash value has been created, and then a different hash value appears once the data is modified. SSL would also meet the requirements for transport. The secure hashing algorithm used to provide the hash value should also be SHA-1 or higher. For this test procedure you would also have to electronically exchange test data (that you specify) and the generated message digest to a receiving system (of your choice) and demonstrate that the electronically exchanged message digest and the message digest generated on the receiving system are the same for the provided test data.

(t) Authentication

NIST Test Procedure for §170.302 (t) Authentication

Pass (10/10). File:Authentication.pdf

Currently implemented by OpenEMR with using client SSL certificates. Please edit this page to include information about the implementation location in the source tree.

(u) General encryption

NIST Test Procedure for §170.302 (u) General encryption

Currently unimplemented in OpenEMR.

Per ICSA:

General Encryption: 3rd party applications can be sued to satisfy this requirement. Any 3rd party application used would be considered part of the system seeking certification, and would need to use a standards based algorithm as identified in the NIST test procedures (FIPS 140-2). The algorithm as well as the 3rd party application would be documented as part of your self-attestation materials. It is up to the applicant to decide what data is encrypted during the testing session, as the NIST procedures are not specific on that point. It may not be necessary to have a separate screen that shows the process, however you would be required to demonstrate that the selected data has been encrypted, and can be decrypted, and provide documentation and self-attestation as to the type of algorithm and any 3rd party applications. SHA-1 or higher should be used for any 3rd party applications used to meet this step.

(v) Encryption when exchanging electronic health information

NIST Test Procedure for §170.302 (v) Encryption when exchanging electronic health information

Pass (5/5). File:Encryption For Exchanging Health Information.pdf

Currently implemented by OpenEMR when using Apache configured for SSL. Please edit this page to include information about the implementation location in the source tree.

(w) Accounting of disclosures (optional)

NIST Test Procedure for §170.302 (w) Optional. Accounting of Disclosures

Pass (5/5). File:Disclosure.pdf

Currently implemented in OpenEMR. Please edit this page to include information about the implementation location in the source tree.
