EFFICIENT ATTACK PREVENTION METHOD FOR PROTECTING ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS (EHRS) IN CLOUD

Abstract: The usage of cloud computing for storage and retrieval of electronic health records(EHRs) have seen a steep rise in past few years. This paper proposes an efficient attack prevention mechanism from unauthorized user to the electronic health records stored in cloud. Also effective secured electronic health record retrieval mechanism is also proposed. Health record signals are been stored and processed for the predetermined health function or parameter to define value in the abnormal range. Also future health signal record is to trend the predetermined function and assume a value in abnormal range and condition. PHR systems typically offer functionality to share, visualize and analyze PHR data. Secure lifelong management of patient medical records since data are stored in the cloud and do not have to be carried around by patients.
