Enhancing Healthcare Data Security in IoT Environments Using Blockchain and DCGRU with Twofish Encryption
Journal Title: Information Dynamics and Applications - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
In the rapidly evolving landscape of digital healthcare, the integration of cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT), and advanced computational methodologies such as machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly enhanced early disease detection, accessibility, and diagnostic scope. However, this progression has concurrently elevated concerns regarding the safeguarding of sensitive patient data. Addressing this challenge, a novel secure healthcare system employing a blockchain-based IoT framework, augmented by deep learning and biomimetic algorithms, is presented. The initial phase encompasses a blockchain-facilitated mechanism for secure data storage, authentication of users, and prognostication of health status. Subsequently, the modified Jellyfish Search Optimization (JSO) algorithm is employed for optimal feature selection from datasets. A unique health status prediction model is introduced, leveraging a Deep Convolutional Gated Recurrent Unit (DCGRU) approach. This model ingeniously combines Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) processes, where the GRU network extracts pivotal directional characteristics, and the CNN architecture discerns complex interrelationships within the data. Security of the data management system is fortified through the implementation of the twofish encryption algorithm. The efficacy of the proposed model is rigorously evaluated using standard medical datasets, including Diabetes and EEG Eyestate, employing diverse performance metrics. Experimental results demonstrate the model's superiority over existing best practices, achieving a notable accuracy of 0.884. Furthermore, comparative analyses with the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) models reveal enhanced performance metrics, with the proposed model achieving a processing time and throughput of 40 and 45.42, respectively.
