Abstract

The electronic patient record (EPR) data sharing is a critical and major challenging issue in cloud environment. The processing chain of EPR mainly includes record collection, record storage, record sharing, etc. Conventional healthcare system often requires the delivery of EPR to the cloud which involves user-sensitive information and causes correspondence vitality utilization. Practically, EPR data sharing is a critical and challenging issue. In this work, we proposed a novel technique healthcare system by effectively handling the EPR data in cloud storage. The management of keys has consistently been a security threat of healthcare system; anyway, its belonging has been intensified after presentation of the cloud; that is why key management needs to be performed effectively. Our novel approach can only be done by securing the process of key management. This is the best way to guarantee that touchy data is not weak when it is setting off to the cloud. Furthermore, keys should be mutually made sure about, and the recovery cycle ought to be troublesome and tedious to ensure that information can never be gotten to without authorization. Finally, in order to protect the healthcare data from criminal attackers by our approach, our experiments are demonstrated.
