Title A name given to the resource MediCrypt: A Model with Symmetric Encryption for Blockchain Enabled Healthcare Data Protection Subject The topic of the resource AES encryption; Blockchain; Blowfish Encryption; Ethereum; SHA256; Smart Contracts Description An account of the resource In the dynamic field of medicine, combining blockchain technology and data security becomes a vital strategy to solve the problem of protecting sensitive medical data. This study presents a new way to improve the security and privacy of medical data, using MediCrypt as an example of two- way encryption. Doctors initially used algorithms like AES or Blowfish to retrieve medical data. Smart contracts on the Ethereum-based blockchain introduce a layer of protection, combining SHA-256 with symmetric encryption technology. The multi-level transmission model includes encryption time, encryption time, elapsed time, and encryption size. Functionality in this model involves managing patient records (EHR), counterfeit drugs, drug reviews, clinical outcomes, and consent for all care areas. As shown in the methodology, the user ecosystem facilitates the exchange of information by defining the roles and responsibilities of doctors/pharmacists, administrators, and patients. The study shows the deployment of the MediCrypt model in three distinct stages. Distinct comparison of encryption time is done for different encryption algorithms. Also, parameters of MediCrypt model is compared with existing healthcare based blockchain models. 2024 IEEE.
