  • Patent number: 12229520
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for providing secure data translation using machine-readable identifiers, such as barcodes or quick response (QR) codes. In one embodiment, a client device may be configured to translate input data stored in a first data format to data in a universal data format and encrypt the data in the universal data format using the cryptographic key such that the data in the universal data format is only accessible by the reader device having the cryptographic key. The client device may further generate a machine-readable identifier using the data as encrypted for rendering in a display accessible by the client device. A reader device may be configured to decrypt the data as encrypted to access the data in the universal data forma; and translate the input data from the universal data format to a second data format in accordance with a second format setting.

  • Patent number: 11948029
    Abstract: A client device collects immunization data includes a type of immunization given to an individual and a date that the immunization was provided to the individual. The client device converts immunization data into a numeric string, where the numeric string as converted comprises an encrypted payload portion and a mode indicator portion. The client device generates a two-dimensional machine-readable identifier using the numeric string. A reader device reads the two-dimensional machine-readable identifier and accesses the numeric string. The reader device converts at least a portion of the numeric string comprising the immunization data into a predetermined format for importing into an electronic health record (EHR).

  • Publication number: 20200008051
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for providing access control to the sensitive data, such as personal medical history. A first client device executes an application that ingests input data entered by a user via a user interface of the first client device, encrypts at least a first portion of the input data using a first cryptographic key, and transmits the encrypted input data over a low-power wireless private area network (WPAN), such as a Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) WPAN, for example. A second client device executing a second application receives the encrypted input data transmitted over the low-power WPAN by the first client device and use the first cryptographic key to decrypt the encrypted input data.
