Studying the Security and Privacy Issues of Big Data in the Saudi Medical Sector

Abstract

In today's era of Big Data, with the integration of data from various systems, devices, and machines used by healthcare service providers, health insurance companies, and their sub-sectors, maintaining privacy and security has become crucial. It is important to uphold the confidentiality and security of data exchanged between data service providers and insurance companies as required by law. The purpose of this paper is to focus on addressing the security and privacy issues associated with healthcare data, particularly concerning medical data in both in- transit and at-rest modes. We aim to provide a proposed solution to enhance data security and maximize privacy protection.
