Abstract
In Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), Healthcare providers carried out electronic Personal Health Record (PHR) to manage the health data of individuals in such a heterogeneous IoMT environment. PHR, on the other hand, comprises sensitive information about which privacy and security issues are important. Key Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (KP-ABE) is a modern encryption technique that provides security with an access control mechanism. Here, we propose a PHR Access Control (PAC) scheme by using KP-ABE for sharing personal health record in the IoMT environment. Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) provides a strong notion of security with smaller key sizes. Therefore, we use the point scalar multiplication of ECC to reduce the computational cost of PHR owners and PHR users. The adoption of KP-ABE using ECC for exchanging PHR greatly enhanced overall efficiency while also ensuring personal health data security, according to the experimental investigation.
