The electronic medical record(EMR) is designed to automatically keep, gather and retrieve patient information that is entered by the EMR end-user (Lee et al., 2013). The EHR emerged from the EMR, which contains medical and other information related to a patient such as demographic, insurance and financial information, that enable the stakeholders to pass information around at any time in the delivery of care services (Garets and Davis, 2006). After the digitisation trend, EHR found to be a way to enhance the quality of health care services and a successful implementation of the EHR brings benefits to the health care professional, customers and the health organisation(Yoshida et al., 2013). However, the widespread and easy access to EHR system within healthcare field, which has a substantial numbers of patients’ records might be become accessible for both authorized and unauthorized HCPs(Sher et al., 2017b, Rothstein, 2007). Thus, the EHR might be a possible threat to patients privacy because the security breaches might be occurred anytime (Kuo et al., 2014). the most reported privacy violation comes from the HCPs misuse who have a privileged access to the EHR system (Foth, 2017).Ponemon (2011) reported that a majority of healthcare organisations struggle to protect EHR data.
