Apple's iCloud Not Open for Health Data

September 3, 2014 | In the run-up to the launch of Apple's HealthKit personal healthcare platform, the company has announced that app developers will be barred from storing customers' health-related data in iCloud. The measure is likely intended to address concerns that HealthKit will be a prime target for the theft of highly sensitive information. Apple also plans to reject apps that share data with third parties without user consent, or which do not have explicit privacy policies. Business Insider
