Abstract
Digital terrorism is a major cause of securing patient/healthcare providers
data and information. Sensitive topics that may have an impact on a patient's
health or even national security include patient health records and information
on healthcare providers. Health databases and data sets have been continually
breached by many, regular assaults, as well as local and remote servers
equipped with wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in diverse locations. The problem
was addressed by some contemporary strategies that were created to stop these
assaults and guarantee the privacy of patient data and information transferred
and gathered by sensors. Nevertheless, the literature analysis outlines many
indications of weakness that persist in these methods. This study suggests a
novel, reliable method that bolsters the information security and data gathered
by sensors and kept on base station datasets. The proposed approach combines a
number of security mechanisms, including symmetric cryptography for encryption,
asymmetric cryptography for access control and signatures, and the Lesamnta-LW
method in the signature process. Users' information is shielded from prying
eyes by the careful application of these measures and a sound approach.
Investigational comparisons, security studies, and thorough results show that
the suggested method is better than earlier methods.
