Optimizing healthcare big data privacy with scalable subtree-based L-Anonymization in cloud environments
摘要
Big data represents a transformative generation with significant packages across diverse sectors, such as healthcare, public records, and social media. In healthcare, massive information facilitates the evaluation, access, and retrieval of electronic health records (EHR), emphasizing the need for privateness through effective anonymization techniques. Addressing gaps in existing literature, this article proposes a framework using Scalable Subtree L-Anonymization (SS-LA) combined with the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) to ensure privacy in dealing with healthcare big data inside cloud environments. The approach begins with the collection and normalization of healthcare big data, accompanied by feature extraction using Independent Component Analysis (ICA). Key overall performance metrics memory utilization, error value, accuracy, and execution time are assessed. Results suggest that the proposed technique continuously outperforms traditional methods through completing tasks more rapidly even as retaining a excessive degree of protection. Overall, this study highlights the efficacy of the proposed technique in enhancing privacy in healthcare facts management.
