The concept of confidentiality is very different in a technologically advanced environment.

The article discusses levels of security, including log-on procedures, firewalls, and encryption, which can be used at each level to protect sensitive information, and presents guidelines to help professionals protect and promote confidentiality within the constraints of technology and managed care.
