In recent years substantial funding has been made available towards e-healthcare initiatives worldwide. The move towards e-healthcare is envisaged to reduce the cost of provision of healthcare, improve quality of care and reduce medical errors. Despite all these advantages the security concerns are real and going to increase as the rate in which we digitise information and use the web for critical applications increases. Major security issues in e-healthcare include patient privacy, trust, and quality-assurance. These and other security concerns are affecting the adoption rate and usage of e-healthcare information systems. Therefore, unless deliberate efforts are taken to secure these systems from design to implementation most of the development achieved to date may not be realised and rolled out to the real world. This workshop will bring together researchers and industry participants who are involved either in the design, development, and implementation of novel secure e-healthcare Information systems or in the research that addresses the key questions in the enhancement of privacy and security of e-healthcare information. We expect the work that will be presented in this workshop to address security and privacy problems and suggest solutions that can be used in distributed and heterogeneous computer systems as well as in mobile devices, which will characterise the emerging e-healthcare environment. The security and privacy issues in e-healthcare Information Systems that will be presented and discussed in this workshop are becoming increasingly important. These issues will also have significant effect in other emerging application areas such as cloud computing and big data. We, therefore, welcome original, high-quality research contributions that advance the state-of-the-art in the design, development, deployment, evaluation and understanding of secure e-healthcare information systems.
