Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled healthcare becomes one of the important technology due to the advances in the information and communications technology (ICT). However, there are several security and privacy issues in an IoT-enabled healthcare system due to security threats and attacks mounted by an adversary. The blockchain technology offers immutability, decentralization, and transparency while the data is stored. In this paper, we design a novel access control scheme, called private blockchain enabled security framework for IoT-based healthcare system (in short, PBESF-IoTHS) which is not only efficient in computation and communication but also offers superior security and more functionality features as compared to other relevant competing schemes. The blockchain-based simulation results also demonstrate the proposed PBESF-IoTHS’s practical usefulness in finding the computational time required for a varied number of blocks mined in a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) blockchain network and a varied number of transactions per block.
