Abstract:
Wireless wearable sensor devices combined with cloud computing have significantly advanced patient care in modern healthcare. These technologies provide more comprehensive features than traditional healthcare services, enabling more efficient monitoring, data sharing, diagnosis, and remote patient engagement. However, the integration of wearable devices into healthcare introduces several security challenges, including concerns around data privacy and security. The adoption of mobile health (mHealth) systems, which are increasingly patient-driven, has seen substantial growth. Wearable sensors are used to collect real-time patient data, which is then aggregated and encrypted on end-user devices. Healthcare professionals such as doctors, nurses, and researchers store and access this encrypted data in the cloud. One of the primary challenges is the efficient sharing of scalable encrypted data. This paper proposes a Lightweight Sharable and Traceable (LiST) secure mobile health system, where patient data is encrypted end-to-end. The LiST system provides precise keyword searches and secure access control to encrypted data, with support for traitor tracing and user revocation. This system also addresses the issue of traitors who may sell their search keys or steal permissions. The majority of cryptographic computations are handled by the cloud, while end-user devices perform minimal tasks. The LiST system is proven to be secure without relying on a random oracle, and extensive experimentation has shown improvements in system performance. The global expansion of health information technology is evident, with even developing nations adopting smart devices for healthcare. The widespread use of smartphones has driven the demand for mobile applications in healthcare, and both patients and healthcare providers are increasingly comfortable using mobile devices for accessing patient records and diagnosis.
