Abstract

In recent years, health care technologies already became matured such as electronic medical records that can be easily stored. However, how to get medical resources more convenient is currently concern issue. In spite of many literatures discussed about medical systems, but these literatures should face many security challenges. The most important issue is patients’ privacy. Therefore, we propose a secure medical data exchange protocol based on cloud environment. In our scheme, we use mobile device’s characteristics, allowing peoples use medical resources on the cloud environment to seek medical advice conveniently.
