Blockchain-based Secure Health Records in the Healthcare Industry

Abstract

Global healthcare systems are going through substantial changes in access, data processing, monitoring, and healthcare. By 2020, it's anticipated that connected and data-capturing equipment will have produced around 2314 exabytes of healthcare data. Cybercriminals work very hard to get access to medical information. Due to this challenge, the market for cybersecurity is predicted to reach $27.1 billion in 2026. To collect data for clinical research, a central repository will be formed with blockchain technology. This article proposes a secure mechanism utilizing Blockchain to guarantee the security of electronic health records (EHR). Databases, the Internet of Things, sensors, and other computing resources are part of the architecture. In comparison to the conventional healthcare system, the security and privacy of EHR will be improved by this framework for security
