Abstract

Blockchain technology is widely adopted in the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) for information storage and retrieval. The integration of blockchain with IoMT systems enhances security; however, it raises privacy and security in data searching and storage. This study proposes a novel Binary Spring Search (BSS) technique based on group theory and integrated with a hybrid deep neural network approach to enhance the security and trustworthiness of IoMT. The proposed method incorporates secure key revocation and dynamic policy updates. The proposed framework leverages blockchain technology for immutable and decentralized data management, Artificial Intelligence (AI) for dynamic data analysis and threat detection, and advanced searchable encryption techniques to facilitate secure and efficient data queries. The proposed patient-centered data access model that combines blockchain technology with trust chains makes our method safer and more efficient and demonstrates a return on investment. Furthermore, our blockchain-based architecture ensures the integrity and immutability of medical data generated by IoMT devices, allowing for decentralized and tamper-proof storage. We used the hyper-ledger fabric tool, known as OrigionLab, for simulations in a blockchain context. We claim that the suggested framework provides a more searchable and secure solution to the healthcare system when compared to the other methods given through our findings. The simulation results show that our algorithm significantly reduces transaction time while maintaining high levels of security, making it a robust solution for managing Patient Health Records (PHR) in a decentralized manner.
