AROGYAM-A BLOCKCHAIN BASED HEALTH CARE PLATFORM
Main Article Content
Abstract
In today's rapidly evolving healthcare sector, the integration of new technologies and innovations brings increased risks related to medical data security, privacy, and data loss prevention. Blockchain, recognized as one of the most advanced technologies, offers robust protection for data integrity, availability, and confidentiality against various cyber threats. Through the implementation of smart contracts—programmable, self-executing protocols on the blockchain—a secure framework is developed to enhance data protection, safeguard patient privacy, ensure traceability, and provide patients with full control over their health records. The data-sharing mechanisms incorporated into Arogyam and other systems benefit from increased trust and traceability, making healthcare data management more secure and transparent.
