Abstract
With the remarkable development of internet technologies, the popularity of smart healthcare has regularly come to the fore. Smart healthcare uses advanced technologies to transform the traditional medical system in an all-round way, making healthcare more efficient, more convenient, and more personalized. Unfortunately, medical data security is a serious issue in the smart healthcare systems. It becomes a fundamental challenge that requires the development of efficient innovative strategies towards fulfilling the healthcare needs and supporting secure healthcare transfer and delivery. This article provides a comprehensive survey on state-of-the-art techniques for health data security and their new trends for solving challenges in real-world applications. We survey the various notable cryptography, biometrics, watermarking, and blockchain-based security techniques for healthcare applications. A comparative analysis is also performed to identify the contribution of reviewed techniques in terms of their objective, methodology, type of medical data, important features, and limitations. At the end, we discuss the open issues and research directions to explore the promising areas for future research.
