Storage Virtualization Mechanism for Securing Electronic Health Records in Cloud

In the present situation, storing digital health records in the cloud for the immediate usage of patients and treatment providers is the most convenient and economical way for patients. Cloud based Electronic Health Records contain information about the patients and also provide updates to the treatment providers. From the treatment providers' perspective, it is easy for them to see the previous health records of their patients. As a result, the duplication of health records is eliminated. However, the major issue in this system is storing health records and protecting the privacy of patient's details in the cloud. Currently, there are many research scholars who are working constantly to maintain and update the existing electronic health records in the cloud. The aim of this paper is to create virtual storage to secure electronic health records and to provide privacy and backups to customers.
