However, I think I > remember that GNUmed people did some demo video. yes and no -- I think that I should not even try to present some individual software solutions but rather Debian as a hole and its fit due to all work of Debian Med... then if we come back to privacy concerns at the level of OS: - weakly protected (or unprotected at all) data by the corresponding program is much more vulnerable if OS is vulnerable and cannot impose file-system level access right restrictions, process jailing and access control (SE Linux, LXC, etc) - OS level encryption of drives/swap to guarantee data safety if corresponding hardware gets stolen / recycled - ??? more ??? High-level summary: secure-by-design OS helps to maintain data privacy/security at appropriate level, while "secure" application on a vulnerable OS cannot protect data adequately. and as for a demo -- just demonstrate Debian itself -- availability of thousands of software solutions with accent on those for health community -- ease of installation, maintenance, uniform bug reporting, etc -- common drill or do you feel such perspective is not appropriate here? > > also would need to prep some slides presenting DebianMed -- any > > sketches/previous talks/slides? > You might know that I have a large list of talks here: > http://people.debian.org/~tille/talks/ cool -- you keep a nice archive of them! meanwhile on http://people.debian.org/~tille/talks/other_en.html broken link: http://people.debian.org/~tille/talks/201203_osm_workshop/oam.pdf > and recently maintain these in > git://people.debian.org/~/talks.git sorry -- I guess url needs to be fixed up a bit -- also I don't find you under /srv/git.debian.org/git/users on git.debian.org > > supporting materials -- also not sure what could be a worth adding > > (Social Contract? ;) ) > Not totally sure what you mean here.
