Özet
Today, the confidentiality and security of patient medical records is of great importance. This study proposes a scheme that aims to store, access, and share medical data without risking security vulnerabilities and attacks. In the proposed scheme, medical data are divided into sensitive and non-sensitive patient data. Three consensus mechanisms (Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), and Proof of Authority (PoA)) are implemented and compared to each other in terms of performance. The performance analysis of the proposed scheme shows that PoW provides approximately 21% and 9% better results than PoA and PoS for non-sensitive data in terms of block size, respectively. It also provides approximately 23% and 32% better results than PoA and PoS for sensitive data in terms of memory usage, respectively. The security analysis demonstrates that it has many security features and is strong against man-in-the-middle, impersonation, and modification attacks.
