A Multi-Objective Bee Foraging Learning-Based Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for Enhancing the Security of Healthcare Data in Cloud System

Abstract

Cloud computing is a potential platform transforming the health sector by allowing clinicians to monitor patients in real-time using sensor technologies. However, the users tend to transmit sensitive and classified medical data back and forth to cloud service providers for centralized processing and storage. This presents opportunities for hackers to steal data, intercept data in transit, and deprive patients and healthcare providers of private information. Consequently, Security and privacy are the primary concerns that must be addressed for the healthcare organization to trust and adopt the cloud computing platform. We present data sanitization and restoration processes to generate the keys from the acquired data and develop a multi-objective function for the hiding ratio, degree of modification, and information preservation ratio. We then employed the Bee-Foraging Learning-based Particle Swarm Optimization (BFL-PSO) algorithm to acquire the optimal key while transferring healthcare data into the cloud to ensure high Security. The experiment is carried out on the UHDDS dataset. The performance is assessed in terms of Security, delay time, encryption time, error rate, and convergence speed, with the results contrasted to state-of-the-art works. The performance study demonstrates that the suggested algorithm has higher Security than cutting-edge security algorithms.INDEX TERMS Healthcare, BFL-PSO, sanitization, restoration, cloud storage, degree of modification, hiding ratio, and information preservation ratio.

The applications of nature‐inspired algorithms in Internet of Things‐based healthcare service: A systematic literature review

“…As well, Irshad et al 39 introduced an approach, a Multi-Objective Bee Foraging Learning-Based Particle Swarm Optimization (MOBFLPSO) algorithm, designed to enhance the security of healthcare data in cloud systems. By combining bee foraging learning principles with PSO, their proposed algorithm aimed to address multiple security objectives simultaneously.…”

Restoring private autism dataset from sanitized database using an optimized key produced from enhanced combined PSO-GWO framework

“…The same concern should be addressed for the study of 18 , 19 , where the outputs were lacking in optimization 18 and ineffectiveness to preserve other sensitive information, such as frequent items 19 . Another approach, namely the Bee-Foraging Learning-based Particle Swarm Optimization (BFL-PSO) algorithm, was introduced to yield the optimal key for data sanitization and restoration 20 . The study considered multi-objective functions, such as error rate, computational time, complexity, etc., to measure its performances, but the performances should be more promising.…”

COVID-19 and beyond: leveraging artificial intelligence for enhanced outbreak control

“…A real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RTPCR) was the most extensively utilized technology for diagnosis (Zhu et al, 2020). X-ray and CT scans are two widely recognized radiological imaging methods (Irshad et al, 2023) because RT-PCR has a low sensitivity (60-70%), symptoms could be recognized using radiological imaging (Alam et al, 2021b). For instant results, automated evaluation of CT scans and chest X-rays through ML or deep learning approaches were adopted (Çalli et al, 2021), these methods assisted in speeding up the analysis process considerably (Alam et al, 2021a).…”
