Privacy Preserving Health Monitoring Service using Cloud Computing

Mobile health (mHealth) monitoring in cloud, which imposes the prevailing mobile communications and cloud computing technologies to give feedback decision support, has been taken as a radical approach to increasing the quality of healthcare service while decreasing the healthcare price. Miserably, it also contains a severe risk on both users’ privacy and rational property of monitoring service providers, which could avert the vast adoption of mHealth technology. This paper is to confront this important drawback and model a privacy preserving mobile health monitoring system using cloud to secure the privacy of concerned parties and their information. Moreover, the outsourcing decryption technique and a lately proposed key secure proxy re encryption are suitable to shift the computational complication of the concerned parties to the cloud without compromising users’ privacy and service providers’ rational property. At last, our operation analysis and security indicates the efficiency of our proposed design.
