While @Dusk has gained prominence for regulated financial applications, Dusk opens doors to disruptive use cases in sensitive sectors where data confidentiality, integrity, and compliance are paramount.
In this article we will be exploring the non-financial applications of Dusk's privacy tech, focusing on secure data sharing in healthcare, while touching on broader industry disruption potential.
• Healthcare sector as we know generates high amount of sensitive data, electronic health records (EHRs), genomic sequences, clinical trial results, and patient consent logs but traditional systems lacks interoperability and privacy regulations like GDPR or HIPAA, often forcing centralized silos or risky sharing. Dusk's zero knowledge proof (ZKP) powered architecture addresses these pain points:
1. Privacy Preserving Patient Data Exchange: With $DUSK 's technology, patients could control granular access to their records via confidential smart contracts. A hospital might request proof that a patient meets eligibility for a trial (example: age >18, specific genetic marker present) without seeing full medical history. ZKPs verify the claim on-chain while keeping details encrypted.
2. Consent Management and Audit Trails: Dusk's selective disclosure allows patients to prove consent revocation or compliance with data usage policies without broadcasting full logs.
#dusk Network's zero-knowledge foundation isn't just for finance, it's a general purpose privacy infrastructure. As regulations tighten (GDPR, upcoming data acts) and data breaches rise, sectors like healthcare need tools that enable collaboration without compromise.
