Artificial intelligence and blockchain for robust healthcare delivery: from the perspective of security and confidentiality

Abstract

Blockchain technology and artificial intelligence (AI) have recently enabled the medical industry to undergo a transformation with regard to information protection and privacy. This chapter explores the opportunities to apply these innovative technologies in healthcare, addressing the implications for security and privacy from both a technical and regulatory perspective. In the first section of this chapter, both AI and blockchain technologies are briefly introduced and the current trends in their application in healthcare. It also explains the characteristics of the healthcare sector that make it particularly suitable for employing AI and blockchain solutions. The second part examines the technical safety and confidential benefits of employing AI and blockchain technology and the security and privacy implications of their adoption in healthcare. It also considers the regulatory implications associated with their implementation, and the need for robust regulatory frameworks to ascertain the safety and confidential of patient and healthcare data. Finally, the chapter explores the potential practical applications of AI and blockchain in healthcare and the current challenges in their implementation. It concludes by offering recommendations on how to ascertain the secure and private use of AI and blockchain in healthcare. Overall, this chapter demonstrates that AI and blockchain can be powerful tools for ensuring the safety and confidential of healthcare data. However, further research and development are needed to ensure their successful implementation and to ensure the implementation of robust security and regulatory frameworks.
