An access control system for cloud-based healthcare systems driven by blockchain
摘要
An effective healthcare data system must safeguard individual privacy, foster public trust, and enhance societal resilience. To achieve this, access to critical health information must be provided in an ethical, secure, and reliable manner. This paper proposes a blockchain-based healthcare management framework designed to improve security, privacy, and transparency in healthcare administration. The architecture incorporates smart contracts, multi-signature wallets, and zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to securely facilitate key operations such as patient registration, policy updates, and medical device management on a decentralized platform. Multi-signature wallets require authorization from multiple stakeholders for sensitive transactions, while ZKPs enable identity or access verification without disclosing confidential information. A built-in performance monitoring module collects key metrics, including transaction latency, gas consumption, and block time, which are visualized using JavaScript. Overall, the proposed system offers a secure, transparent, and privacy-preserving approach to decentralized healthcare management.
