Blockchain and Cryptography Technology

Curana Health's vision of promoting self-sovereignty and global collaboration among patients, healthcare organizations, and entities relies heavily on the power of blockchain technology. By leveraging blockchain and crypto technologies, Curana Health ensures reliable records and verification methods for data, assets, and their history from creation to distribution. This page delves into the specific blockchain technologies used by Curana Health to establish trust in records, ensure the integrity of medical data, and facilitate secure collaboration.

Establishing Trust in Records

Curana Health utilizes blockchain technology to create an immutable and tamper-evident record of medical data, assets, and their history. This ensures that all stakeholders can trust the accuracy and authenticity of the information. By using blockchain, Curana Health establishes a single source of truth, eliminating the need for intermediaries and reducing the risk of data manipulation or falsification.

Hyperledger Fabric: The Foundation of Curana Health's Blockchain Network

Curana Health has chosen Hyperledger Fabric as the foundation of its blockchain network. Fabric is a private and permissioned blockchain platform that provides a modular architecture, allowing for the creation of a decentralized network that is tailored to the specific needs of the healthcare industry.

Fabric's features, such as:

• Private and permissioned network: Ensures that only authorized parties can access and contribute to the network.

• Modular architecture: Enables the creation of a customized network that meets the specific requirements of Curana Health.

• Smart contracts: Allows for the automation of business logic and ensures that all stakeholders adhere to agreed-upon rules and regulations.

make it an ideal choice for Curana Health's blockchain network.

Ensuring the Integrity of Medical Data

Curana Health's blockchain network ensures the integrity of medical data by:

• Immutable storage: Storing medical data in an immutable ledger that cannot be altered or deleted.

• Encryption: Protecting medical data with advanced encryption techniques, ensuring that only authorized parties can access the information.

• Access control: Implementing robust access control mechanisms that ensure only authorized parties can access and contribute to the network.

• Audit trail: Creating an immutable audit trail that tracks all transactions and interactions with the network, providing a transparent and tamper-evident record of all activities.

Additional Blockchain Technologies Used by Curana Health

In addition to Hyperledger Fabric, Curana Health utilizes other blockchain technologies to ensure the security, transparency, and integrity of its network. These include:

• Cryptographic algorithms: Advanced cryptographic algorithms, such as elliptic curve cryptography and hash functions, to ensure the secure storage and transmission of medical data.

• Decentralized identity management: Decentralized identity management systems, such as Self-Sovereign Identity (ERC-725), to enable patients to control their own medical data and identity.

• Smart contract platforms: Smart contract platforms, such as Ethereum, to enable the creation and execution of complex business logic and rules.
