Abstract:
The digital revolution has transformed the way health records are kept and communicated. Electronic health records (EHR) have improved integration of patient data and increased their accessibility for both patients and healthcare providers. A drawback is the danger of a data breach and thus of patient confidentiality. This article provides an overview of patient data security in the digital era. It examines the different challenges and concerns related to data security and suggests potential solutions to protect patients' sensitive data. Additionally, we discuss the ethical and legal implications of data security in the healthcare sector and the probable impact on patient trust.
