| dc.description.abstract | Background: On a global scale, a series of systems have been developed for cyber security and
assessment of data breaches. However, in many Low and Middle-Income Countries, data breach
systems around health technologies are undeveloped in handling hacking intrusions, insider
threats, Data on the move, physical theft, human error, accidental, internet exposure and
unauthorized access and little study has been done to come up with a system to specifically
assess and address the data breaches in health Information systems. To address the gap, this
study developed a data breach management system to evaluate data breaches in healthcare data at
the Uganda Cancer Institute at Mulago National Referral Hospital, Central Uganda.
Methods: This study used a cross-sectional qualitative study design, carried out at Uganda
Cancer Institute, a public health facility in Uganda. The qualitative approach offered in-depth
analysis offering insights and comprehension of the problem context. Scoping review
methodology was applied for literature search, agile methodology using user centered design was
used to design the System and TTAT theory evaluated the accuracy of the System deigned.
Results: Drawing from TTAT model theory, the researcher found that the system for healthcare
data breaches of health information systems generally feasible for assessment of data breaches
for health care data at Uganda Cancer Institute at Mulago National Referral Hospital, Central
Uganda. The accuracy of the system was deemed important by the Risk tolerance, social
influence, users‘ perceived susceptibility and severity of malicious IT, a safeguarding measure's
effectiveness, costs, and users' self-efficacy toward it. Study participants found the System
useful, not costly and easy to use when assessing data breaches as visualized by graphs, a
questionnaire and percentages. Study participants described that the System assessed the
healthcare data against data breaches and gave them a percentage to ascertain data breach levels.
Participants also stated that this enabled them to understand how risky data breaches are and how
well to protect themselves.
Conclusion: the study found that the system was important for data b | en_US |
