e-Health is referred to in literature as the usage of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the health domain, for administering treatment of patients, research, and health education and monitoring of public health in situ or remotely. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) plays a significant role in society today. Digitalization is changing all areas of human behavior, from social settings to basic needs, like health-related matters. The impact of new technology on improving health and well-being of individuals and populations is unprecedented, creating a phenomenon referred to as digital revolution in healthcare. The purpose of this paper is therefore to present DoctorCloud.net Platform for remote emergency, tactical health, and security support. It is a complete system for direct human support that offers immediate access to medical parameters and data via the Internet cloud.
