Apple CareKit integrates with Tresorit ZeroKit to secure patient data in the cloud
Apple on Tuesday announced its CareKit development framework, designed to create apps that let healthcare professionals continue followup care with patients, is now integrated with Tresorit's ZeroKit, which provides end-to-end encryption of users' account credentials and their health data to the cloud.
Apple announced CareKit last spring as an extension of ResearchKit. While ResearchKit was intended to help create apps that enabled medical researchers to gather and analyze health related data from study participants, CareKit —in response to practitioners' requests —was created to help individuals better manage their own medical conditions.
