Abstract
Cloud-based healthcare computing has changed the face of healthcare in many ways. The main advantages of cloud computing in healthcare are scalability of the required service and the provision to upscale or downsize the data storge, particularly in conjunction with approaches to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. This paper examines various research studies to explore the utilization of intelligent techniques in health systems and mainly focuses on the security and privacy issues in the current technologies. Despite the various benefits related to cloud computing applications for healthcare, there are different types of management, technology handling, security measures, and legal issues to be considered and addressed. The key focus of this paper is to address the increased demand for cloud computing and its definition, technologies widely used in healthcare, their problems and possibilities, and the way protection mechanisms are organized and prepared when the company chooses to implement the latest evolving service model. As such, we sought out current literature on different approaches and mechanisms used in eHealth to deal with security and privacy issues. Some of these approaches have strengths and weaknesses. After selecting original articles, a literature review was carried out, and we identified several models adopted in their solutions. We arrived at the reviewed articles after comparing the models used.
Keywords: eHealth, cloud computing, security, privacy in health systems
Introduction
Innovative changes in science, technology, and the broad understanding of our universe have permitted the evolution of practical, progressive answers to enhance the nature of human existence. Researchers considering these innovative developments have identified and assessed wellbeing data from various sources to acquire actionable information and address issues concerning human wellbeing, particularly in the realm of healthcare. In this manner, the advancement of incorporated medical care innovations—including technological innovations—has the likelihood to enhance efficiency and improve understanding of the results at each level of the medical care framework. Long-term care (LTC) facilities are a crucial a part of the healthcare industry, providing care to the fastest-growing group of the population. However, the adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) in LTC facilities lags behind other areas of the health care industry.[1] The advancement of new electronic health (eHealth) application frameworks can take care of specific issues pertinent to conventional medical care frameworks by means of powerful patient wellbeing controls, pervasive information access, distant patient checking, quick clinical intercession, and decentralized electronic medical records. These frameworks can oversee wellbeing data and patient information, upgrade personal satisfaction, increase coordinated effort, improve results, decrease expenses, and increase the general efficiency of electronic healthcare administrations.[2] For healthcare, EHRs are required to be shared among different healthcare organizations, medical drug manufacturers, pharmacists, medical insurance providers, researchers, and patients. This poses a significant challenge to keeping patients' sensitive data secure.[3] Eisenach highlights this in his depiction of eHealth as a tech industry that addresses the intersection of the internet, systems administration, and medical services, which has the potential to benefit the framework of clients and partners. The growing concept of eHealth involves the convergence of clinical informatics, general human wellbeing, and the wellbeing and administration of the internet, which helps drive the overall advancement of new innovation to tackle profound issues, drive down expenses, and improve understanding.[4]
Along these lines, models, gadgets, and frameworks associated with the internet of things (IoT) have become universal. Besides, the broad appropriation of IoT has harmonized with the improvement of interrelated, corresponding advances, for example, registering knowledge for medical care, business, industry, operational frameworks, etc. The efficient and safe usage of wellbeing data advancements, benefits, and all-encompassing eHealth frameworks requires exceedingly efficient and strong security frameworks to make such execution reasonable. The universality of IoT frameworks has driven the expansion of IoT innovation, remembering assorted designs for use by healthcare organizations. Connecting networks, gadgets, applications, and administration with IoT permits eHealth frameworks to share related data by utilizing the most recent IoT innovations.[5]
IoT and distributed computing are progressive innovations that supplement each other’s capacities when incorporated as flexible, versatile, and efficient tolerant medical service frameworks. The blend provides benefits, including simplicity of execution (contrasted with regular organizations), improved data security during correspondence, speedy access to records, and lower energy costs over customary modalities. Cloud-based IoT eHealth frameworks can significantly improve medical care benefits and advance persistent and efficient healthcare development. Within such frameworks, hidden IoT networks empower correspondence between clients, administrators, and workers, with clinical information being stored in the cloud. However, with new these improvements in distributed computing pushing healthcare beyond "business as usual," a variety of data storage and security issues are revealed, requiring consideration.[6]
Distributed and cloud computing are innovations that have and continue to transform the healthcare industry. Distributed computing can help improve a healthcare organization's adaptability, savvy, finances, data processing ability, and secure data sharing and distribution.[7] Cloud computing, when implemented well, should provide the ability to oversee applications and information, server accessibility, and end-used computing (EUC). Cloud computing should also ideally provide a complete, logical set of insights into a healthcare enterprise's infrastructure and end clients. By extension, cloud computing permits staff or workers to obtain and deal with their applications and information continuously on any gadget, from anywhere in the world with access to the internet.[8] However, we recognize that a coordinated effort to move information to distributed systems and the cloud brings serious security and protection worries for healthcare providers. As such, they must endeavor to fully address the effectiveness of, security of, and versatility associated with the introduction of cloud-based eHealth to the healthcare enterprise.
The fundamental motivation behind this paper is to examine the idea of cloud-based eHealth, the current utilization of eHealth in healthcare, and the challenges and solutions of cloud-based eHealth. This paper will walk through the state of distributed and cloud computing within the healthcare industry, along with the diverse opportunities and significant cloud-related security challenges associated with it.
