Abstract EN

Information technology (IT) plays an increasingly important and prominent role in the health sector.

Data security is more important than ever to the healthcare industry and in world in general.

The number of data breaches compromising confidential healthcare data is on the rise.

For data security, cloud computing is very useful for securing data.

Due to data storage issue, there is a need to use the electronic communication, and a number of methods have been developed for data security technology.

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is one of the methods that can help in healthcare research.

On stored database of patient in hospital or clinic, we can develop a conservational and analytical method so as to keep the medical records of the patients in a well-preserved and adequate environment.

The method includes the improvement of working possibilities by delivering all the details necessary for the patient.

All the information must be identified clearly.

The protection of the privacy of the patients and the security of their information are the most imperative obstacles to obtain their intakes when considering the adoption of useful health data in the electronic field of healthcare industries.
