Person-Driven Healthcare
Creation of a society in which health care information is collected on an individual basis and distributed across companies and industries by individuals at their own will and authority
Health Information Engineering
From the perspective of corporate health management, we propose a platform for using personal health information and implementing initiatives that contribute to extending healthy longevity expectancy and reducing medical costs in society.

IntaSect Activities
IntaSect has been developing systems since its founding, and we began working in the healthcare sector around 2016, establishing the Healthcare IoT Consortium after a proposal put forth to the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO), jointly with The University of Tokyo, Osaka University, Nuture Networks, and others.The Consortium is mainly responsible for building a secure IoT platform for distributing health information across companies and industries. Furthermore, in 2017, the Consortium expanded its activities by establishing the Joint Research Chair in Health Information Engineering at Osaka University.
Healthcare IoT Consortium
The Healthcare IoT Consortium aims to build data distribution infrastructure and an IoT platform that allows individuals to collect data on their health, behavior, environment, etc., and manage, operate, and utilize it under their own authority. The goal is to create a society where the quality of life can be improved by raising health awareness and changing behavior. To this end, this cross-industry organization aims to revitalize healthcare-related industries, support the creation of new demand, and improve the economic efficiency of national healthcare. It was established in September 2016, led by The University of Tokyo, Hokkaido University, Hiroshima City University, Nuture Networks Inc. and IntaSect Communications Inc.
Below are the three missions of The Healthcare IoT Consortium
01
02
Healthcare Data Distribution
Building a secure IoT platform to distribute health information across companies and industries
03
Changing Behavior and Improving the Quality of Life
Offering services that motivate individuals to provide health care data and make behavioral changes to improve their own health
At IntaSect, we continue to focus on building secure IoT platforms for distributing healthcare data by leveraging our expertise in system development and IoT technology.
Joint Research with Osaka University
From April 2017 to March 2022, we established the Joint Research Chair in Health Information Engineering within the Graduate School of Engineering Science at Osaka University to conduct research and technology development on predicting and controlling (through behavioral changes) health risk.

In the joint research course, students learned how to build a system for collecting biometric information using wearable devices, such as smartwatches, as well as how to analyze the collected data to understand the health status of users and predict the onset of diseases.
We are currently continuing our collaboration with the Kiyono Lab (Prof. Ken Kiyono) of the Graduate School of Engineering Science, Osaka University.
Aiming for Health Management
Health management in companies is essential for promoting employee health and improving organizational performance. A healthy workplace increases productivity, while improving employee satisfaction and motivation. Preventive programs and telemedicine help manage health risks and reduce healthcare costs. This is also a corporate social responsibility, and employee health is directly related to the sustainable success of the organization.
IntaHealth is a healthcare app developed by IntaSect. In addition to acquiring activity data using a wearable devices, it allows users to input information on their weight, blood pressure, blood glucose level, diet, and other data. We are aiming to build a platform that collects a variety of health information, accumulates and analyzes it as big data, and feeds back information to users for the maintenance and promotion of their health.
