Enhancing Cloud-Based Healthcare Security With Quantum-Secure HealthChain: A Quantum Computing and Blockchain Integrated Framework
Abstract
Background and aims: Rising quantum hazards and flaws in conventional encryption make cloud-based healthcare data security harder. Quantum-Secure HealthChain, a new architecture using blockchain and quantum computing, improves medical data security, patient privacy, and data fidelity.
Methods: To prevent quantum attacks, the proposed system uses Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) for safe cryptographic key exchange and quantum-resistant encryption. Blockchain technology secures medical records, while multi-layered encryption ensures data privacy. Quantum Biometric Authentication improves access control using quantum entanglement and biometric data. Key generation, encryption, blockchain storage, authentication, and decryption are system process steps. Experimental evaluation focuses on encryption speed, resource economy, throughput, and scalability using simulated healthcare data.
Results: Experimental data demonstrate system strength and efficiency. Encryption and decryption perform consistently for 1 to 100 MB data sizes with negligible overhead. Throughput can reach 105 transactions per second under normal demand; CPU (82%) and memory (210 MB) utilization are low. Scalability studies show linear expansion lets the system handle increased data volumes and user demands without sacrificing performance. Security study confirms quantum attack, data corruption, and unauthorized access resistance.
Conclusion: Quantum-Secure HealthChain offers a revolutionary method to cloud-based…
