9. Document / Observation / Competitive Analysis¶
This section summarizes external sources reviewed during elicitation and explains how each source influenced system requirements.
9.1 Document Analysis¶
Regulatory Review¶
National data protection standards and SDAIA privacy policies were reviewed to identify legal and security requirements relevant to Sillah.
Key regulatory principles identified:
- Personal data collection must be based on explicit user consent
- Users have the right to access, correct, delete, and withdraw consent
- Personal data must be securely stored within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
- Unauthorized data sharing is prohibited
Derived Requirements¶
These findings justify the inclusion of:
- Secure authentication mechanisms
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
- Restricted data visibility policies
- Secure storage and encryption measures
- Consent management functionality
Sources¶
- SDAIA Privacy Policy
- Ministry of Health Awareness Platform
- WHO Resources
9.2 Observation Notes¶
Current User Behavior¶
Informal observation and background research indicate that families currently track hereditary health information using:
- Personal memory
- Paper notes
- Fragmented mobile applications
- General health apps without hereditary focus
There is no centralized digital system dedicated specifically to structured hereditary preventive tracking.
Derived Requirements¶
This observation supports:
- Structured family profile management
- Health event recording functionality
- Automated risk-detection logic
- Preventive alert generation
9.3 Competitive Review¶
Market Landscape¶
Existing health platforms primarily focus on:
- Appointment booking
- Electronic medical records (EHR)
- General health tracking
However, they do not emphasize:
- Hereditary risk pattern detection
- Family-based health modeling
- Personalized preventive alerts
Strategic Insight¶
This gap reinforces the differentiation of Sillah as a family-centric preventive-health platform.
9.4 Evidence Artifacts¶
The following materials were reviewed and archived as supporting evidence:
- SDAIA Privacy Policy documentation
- Ministry of Health Awareness portal
- WHO public health resources
- Screenshots of competing platforms
These artifacts support traceability between external research and resulting system requirements.
