A Decentralized Storage System for 3D Medical Data with Dynamic AES and AES-GCM Encryption
G Aditya, V. S. Lavanya · Advances in transdisciplinary engineering · 2023
The rapid digitalization of healthcare records has accelerated adoption of automated healthcare solutions. But healthcare records associated with patients can reach orders of petabytes in a few years. Therefore, to completely harness the full potential of digital healthcare technologies, scalable yet secure storage solutions are needed. Tamper-proofing medical records on decentralized storage, paired with data encryption can solve this problem. This paper proposes a working solution for this purpose using Storj as the underlying decentralized storage technology. In addition, a combination of Dynamic AES and AES-GCM is used for lossless content encryption. The viability of the proposed solution is discussed using quantitative and qualitative methods.
