Abstract

Healthcare requires data encryption to safeguard sensitive patient information from unauthorized access or breaches. Encryption ensures that data is encoded into a secure format, making it unreadable to anyone without the decryption key. This helps maintain patient privacy, protects against identity theft, and ensures compliance with data protection regulations like HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.). With encryption, healthcare organizations can mitigate the risk of data breaches and uphold trust with patients by ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of their medical records and personal information. Quantum cryptography emerges as a revolutionary solution, offering unparalleled encryption for healthcare data. This process initiates with the meticulous crafting of quantum states to encapsulate healthcare data securely, ensuring precise encoding. Subsequently, quantum entanglement is established between sender and receiver, creating a secure communication channel resistant to interception attempts. Quantum key distribution then generates a secure key leveraging entangled quantum states, becoming the cornerstone of encryption. Quantum encryption shields healthcare data in an impenetrable veil of secrecy, leveraging the complexities of quantum mechanics to thwart unauthorized decryption attempts. The decryption process, facilitated by the shared secure key, unveils the encrypted healthcare data exclusively to authorized parties, preserving confidentiality with unparalleled precision. The result reveals quantum cryptography's superiority in healthcare data encryption. At 150-bit key length, quantum cryptography takes 352,237 milliseconds vs. AES's 310,285 milliseconds. For a 14 KB input, quantum cryptography requires 7 milliseconds compared to AES's 12 milliseconds. These metrics highlight quantum cryptography's efficiency gains and transformative potential in healthcare data security, promising both enhanced security and efficiency benefits.
