Blockchain and Smart Healthcare Security: A Survey
Abstrak
Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) has penetrated its roots in almost every domain of life. Smart healthcare is one of the major domains that extensively uses IoT infrastructures and solutions. IoT-based smart healthcare systems have immensely added value to the healthcare domain with the use of wearable and mobile devices. This leads to a substantial use of health data sharing for the improved, accurate, and timely diagnosis. However, smart healthcare systems are highly vulnerable to several security breaches and various malignant attacks, such as privacy leakage, tempering, forgery, etc. Recently, the blockchain technology emerged as a propitious solution against such breaches and challenges. This paper presents an up-to-date survey on different challenges and open issues faced in smart healthcare due to the traditional security measures along with the security requirements of such domains. It also amalgamates the potentials of blockchain technology as a promising security measure, highlights potential challenges in the healthcare domain, and provides an analysis of different blockchain-based security solutions.
