Electronics-Health Care is one of the new ideas in the healthcare industry. For analyzing the patient's records, doctors need a centralized record of the patients, which gives useful and enormous information. There will be a threat of leaking of confidential e-health data, which will seriously endanger by modifying the health care data of medical and its individual entities. Protection of the confidential data of patients will be a primary constraint in the health care industry. There is a lot of progressiveness in the human services area as well as there is a lot of usage of the information gathered from various sensors and this information is stored in the cloud. As per the existing security algorithms, there is still some security breach and also it won't get satisfied with integrity and consistency while transferring the data from one vendor to others in the health care system. It also causes high spoofing of IP and side channel hackers. With the increase in the use of the internet, there is an increase in hacking also, especially in the health-care sector, e-commerce, military, and Education. Dealing with the huge volume of information in the electronics-healthcare area requires the processing of patient's information day by day and its memory allocation. Cloud is the best option to store these health records in a distributed manner rather than on a single server. So, whatever the information gathered from it will be encoded on block chain technology and an anonymous digital ring signature will be used to authorize the intended user and maintain the privacy of patient cloud-based data distributed Electronics health record system before sending the information to the cloud storage. In this paper, the protection of Personal data of the patient health data is enhanced with block chain and anonymous ring signatures in the e-healthcare cloud; thus making it suitable for real-time applications.

As healthcare data is extremely sensitive, it poses a risk of invading individuals' privacy if stored or exported without proper security measures. De-identification entails pseudonymization or anonymization of data, which are methods for temporarily or permanently removing an individual's identity. These methods are most suitable to keep user healthcare data private. Inference attacks are a commonly overlooked weakness of de-identification techniques. In this paper, I discuss a method for de-identifying Electronic Healthcare Records (EHR) using chained hashing to generate short-lived pseudonyms to reduce the impact of inference attacks, as well as a mechanism for re-identification based on information self-determination. It also removes the weaknesses of existing de-identification algorithms and resolve them by using appropriate real-time de-identification algorithm, Ephemeral Pseudonym Generation Algorithm (EPGA).
