Data security and data transmission delay trade-offs in healthcare blockchain techniques

What is it about?

With the advancement of technology, data security has become a great issue across the entire world. Every day new vulnerabilities and security breaches are introduced over the communication channel, despite better data security policies. It has been noticed that data security issue is more drastically faced by the healthcare sector only. In regard to major issues related to data security, blockchain technology has acquired great attention. Blockchain technology is a technique for the secure processing of transactions using a decentralized network. In this study, multiple data security techniques based on blockchain technology implemented on healthcare records are analyzed. Among all these existing techniques, some of the techniques are graphically compared and analyzed to figure out the tradeoff between data security and data transmission delay. A theoretical research methodology is used to present an analysis and consider a valid research gap. It shows that how study has come to a conclusion after performing a graphical analysis using secondary research method. It is concluded that considered methodology is completely able to achieve respective goals of study. Finally, graphical result analysis shows that the Diabetes blockchain consortium framework has relatable data transmission delay even though after considering highly advanced blockchain-based data security systems over healthcare records.
