Abstract
This paper identifies and discusses recent information privacy violations or weaknesses which have been found in national infrastructure systems in Australia, the United Kingdom (UK) and the United States of America (USA), two of which involve departments of health and social services. The feasibility of health information systems (HIS) based upon intrinsically more secure technological architectures than those in general use in today's marketplace is investigated. We propose a viable and sustainable IT solution which addresses the privacy and security concerns at all levels in HIS with a focus on trustworthy access control mechanisms.

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
