Privacy and Utility-Assisted Data Protection Strategy for Secure Data Sharing and Retrieval in Cloud System

Pages 451-465 | Published online: 28 Jun 2021
 

ABSTRACT

The outsourcing of Electronic Health Records (EHR) on cloud infrastructures has enabled medical data sharing among several healthcare applications. The blockchain offers security by authenticating users with encryption methods. The collaboration with the cloud provides better management but poses threats to the privacy of the patient. This paper devises a novel blockchain-assisted framework for effective data sharing and retrieval using cloud platforms. Here, the data protection model is devised in EHR application for secure transmission. The entities in the cloud platform include data user, data owner, smart agreement, transactional blockchain, and Inter-Planetary File System (IPFS). Here, the data owner includes a data protection model to secure EHR in which secured EHR is transferred to IPFS before sharing with the data user. The data protection is done by preserving data privacy using Tracy-Singh product and proposed Conditional Autoregressive Value at risk (CAViaR)-based Bird swarm algorithm (CAViaR-based BSA) combination of BSA and CAViaR for generating optimal privacy-preserving coefficients. The objective function is newly devised considering privacy and utility. The proposed CAViaR-based BSA outperformed other methods with minimal responsiveness of 251.339 s, maximal genuine user detection of 32.451%, maximal privacy of 96.5%, and minimal information loss of 3.5%.
