Securing Patient Data in Healthcare Cloud Systems: A Technical Overview

Author(s) Prakash Reddy Vanga

Abstract This article examines the technical framework behind successful cloud migration strategies employed by healthcare institutions, with particular emphasis on security protocols, compliance measures, and privacy-preserving analytics. As healthcare organizations increasingly adopt cloud-based solutions to improve operational flexibility and reduce infrastructure costs, they must address unique security challenges while maintaining regulatory compliance and protecting sensitive patient information. The article explores multi-layered security approaches, including end-to-end encryption, role-based access control systems with contextual awareness and regulatory compliance architectures specifically designed for healthcare environments. It further investigates advanced implementations of privacy-preserving analytics, legacy system integration techniques, authentication modernization, and emerging trends in healthcare cloud security, such as blockchain for immutable audit trails, AI-powered threat detection, zero-trust architectures, and quantum-resistant encryption. Throughout the article, the focus remains on how healthcare organizations can balance the advantages of cloud computing accessibility with the stringent requirements for protecting sensitive patient information while enabling technological advancements that modern healthcare delivery demands.
