HL7v2 is just the schema - the mechanism for sending these messages is normally something called MLLP which is just a simple framing protocol and has no built in security. It is possible to send/receive HL7v2 over other protocols, MLLP is the most common.
Its normal to secure the endpoints via network level security - ipsec etc. HL7v3 transformed into FHIR which is done over HTTPS instead.

- robertlagrant 3y agoIt's normal to not encrypt it, in my experience.
- nradov 3y agoIt's really not normal to not encrypt HL7 V2 messages. Every interface that I've seen uses a VPN.
