Abstract

Cloud based Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems are next generation”big data systems” for facilitating a) efficient and scalable storage, and b) to foster collaborative care, clinical research and development. Mobility and use of multiple mobile devices in collaborative healthcare intrigue robust privacy preservation. Thus, large scale EHR systems require secure access to privacy sensitive EHR data, data storage and management. We provide a comprehensive solution with i) a cryptographic role based technique to distribute session keys to establish communications and information retrieval using Kerberos protocol, ii) location and biometrics based authentication method to authorize the users and iii) a wavelet based steganographic technique to embed EHR data securely using ECG biometric as the host in a trusted cloud storage. Based on a comprehensive security analysis, our model proves to be a scalable, secure and a reliable model to access and manage EHR data.
