Summary
This research paper analyzes security issues in a blockchain-based system designed to encrypt medical data (using public key encryption with keyword search, which allows searching encrypted data without decrypting it first) when that data is stored in cloud environments. The study examines vulnerabilities in how this encryption system works when combined with blockchain (a distributed ledger technology) for sharing patient information securely.
