Abstract: Currently, genetic information is considered a valuable element in the Health Sector, since due to more accurate diagnostic samples in medical genomics this allows to offer better treatments to patients against various types of diseases. This paper presents the development of a technological model using Blockchain as technology to ensure the protection of genetic information in the Private Health Sector because activities related to the storage or management of data of this information present many points of vulnerability. In addition, activities such as registration and control of access in the exchange of genetic information have been administered in an unauthorized manner, mainly through entities that manage the eligibility of users with genomic information and allow access to specific data sets, which shows a lack of harmonization in access policies between the owners of their genetic information and the health entities that manage it. A proof-of-concept has been performed to val idate the capabilities of the model and ensure that a larger-scale deployment can be performed. The evaluation showed that experts agree with the proposal and that users would be willing to use proof of concept to ensure traceability and security of their information (More)
