Abstract EN
Recently, the incorporation of state-of-the-art technology such as electronic healthcare records (EHRs), networks, and cloud computing has transformed the traditional healthcare system.
however, security problems have arisen as a result of the integration of technology.
secure remote user authentication is a core part of the healthcare system to validate the user's identification via an unsecure communication network.
since then, several remote user authentication schemes have been presented, each with its own set of pros and limitations.
as a result, security, malicious attacks and privacy concerns are considered one of the main challenges related to the healthcare system.
in this paper, we propose a safe user authentication scheme for patients in the healthcare system that overcomes these flaws and confirms the security of the proposed work using scyther, a formal security tool.
in the healthcare environment, our work provides an effective means to construct an environment capable of setting, registering, storing, searching, analyzing, authentication, and verifying electronic healthcare information in order to protect the information of patients.
furthermore, our suggested scheme uses symmetric encryption based on the crypto-hash function for accessing the anomaly of the patient's identity and one-time password (OTP).
towards the end of the study, the performance analysis results indicate a delicate balance of security and performance that is frequently lacking in previous works.
