Abstract In the existing Electronic Health Records (EHRs), the medical information of patients is completely controlled by various medical institutions. As such, patients have no dominant power over their own EHRs. These personal data are not only inconvenient to access and share, but are also prone to cause privacy disclosure. The blockchain technology provides a new development direction in the medical field. Blockchain-based EHRs are characterized by decentralization, openness and non-tampering of records, which enable patients to better manage their own EHRs. In order to better protect the privacy of patients, only designated receivers can access EHRs, and receivers can authenticate… More >

Abstract Healthcare is a binding domain for the Internet of Things (IoT) to automate healthcare services for sharing and accumulation patient records at anytime from anywhere through the Internet. The current IP-based Internet architecture suffers from latency, mobility, location dependency, and security. The Named Data Networking (NDN) has been projected as a future internet architecture to cope with the limitations of IP-based Internet. However, the NDN infrastructure does not have a secure framework for IoT healthcare information. In this paper, we proposed a secure NDN framework for IoT-enabled Healthcare (IoTEH). In the proposed work, we adopt the services of Identity-Based Signcryption… More >
