Latest advances in communication and computing techniques are allowed the development of connected health care systems that depends mainly on Edge and IoT techniques [1]. The medical field is globally emerging as advanced digital solution is being executed for accommodating the rise in health care cost when preserving care quality and sending access to each potential health care service. This field is under great pressure to offer high-quality services to patients and regulate expenses [2]. Extensive information is presented in the health care sector in the form of therapeutic research, medical analysis, clinical preliminaries, complex billing, patient medical records, and so on. This information is a useful resource for wide-ranging medical analysis, research, and patients nowadays are concerned with health care data privacy and confidentiality. In addition, unauthorized access to health care information results in privacy and security problems. Further, continued progress has been made in IoT, resultant in an urgent need to analyse current IoT capabilities and requirements. E-Health is a stimulating IoT application [3]. For handling information with other organizations, this architecture demands secured data transmission. Healthcare information is extremely private and data transmission might increase the exposure possibility. Additionally, the present scheme of data transmission employs a centralized framework that needs centralized trust [4,5].
Encryption of sensitive data is the essential and primary approach in cryptography regarding patients’ historical information. Considering the digital health care scheme as the environment for receiving and transferring patients’ medical data [6]. The transmission of medical information to authorized users is a crucial requirement of effective health care. But the current system lacks security techniques since majority of these cases lack appropriate access control and encryption method. Most significantly, blockchain (BC) offers a decentralized network and peer-to-peer systems. A global forecasting estimate that the open direction is available to utilize BC technique for managing IoT device in healthcare system [7]. BC-assisted IoT devices could assist patient privacy and recover ownership of healthcare data by leveraging its property including decentralization, persistence, anonymity, and auditability [8]. BC technique in the medical sector is in its earlier developmental stage, and for its effective operation, there are multiple challenges ahead. BC technique offers strength against data exposure and failure. The BC is a communal data structure accountable to store each transaction detail [9,10].
This article introduces a Blockchain with privacy preserving image encryption and optimal deep learning (BPPIE-ODL) technique for IoT healthcare applications. The proposed BPPIE-ODL technique encompasses the design of dragonfly algorithm (DFA) with signcryption technique to encrypt the medical images captured by the IoT devices. Moreover, BC can be utilized as a distributed data saving approach for generating a ledger, which permits access to the users and prevents third party’s access to encrypted data. Furthermore, the classification process includes SqueezeNet based feature extraction, softmax classifier (SMC), and Nadam based hyperparameter optimizer. In order to investigate the improved encryption as well as classification performance of the BPPIE-ODL technique, a comprehensive experimental analysis is carried out.
Dwivedi et al. [11] presented architecture of adapted BC model applicable for IoT devices that relies on distributed nature and security and privacy properties of the system. This further security and privacy property in this method depend on innovative cryptographic primitive. In [12], BC as a distributed database was presented with a homomorphic encryption approach for ensuring a secured search and keywords-based access to database. In addition, the presented method offers a secured key revocation method and update different policy consequently. Consequently, a secured patient medical data access system is developed, that incorporates trust chain and BC to satisfy the security and efficiency problems in the existing systems. Hamza et al. [1] presented a privacy preserving chaos-based encryption cryptosystem for protecting patient privacy. The presented cryptosystem could defend patient image in compromised broker. Particularly, it can be proposed a fast probabilistic cryptosystem for securing healthcare key frame which are extracting in wireless capsule endoscopy process with a prioritization technique.
Alassaf and Gutub [13] proposed a comparative study of efficiency metrics of three trusted candidate encryption methods such as SIMON, AES, and SPECK, that is compared and simulated in detail for distinguishing has the optimal performance that designated for a healthcare application. This encryption algorithm is evaluated and implemented regarding the power consumption, execution time, speed, and memory occupation. In [14], a privacy-preserving DSSE system for IIoTH has been introduced. An initial DSSE system developed to personal health record (PHR) dataset with forwarding security. Once the user implements searching operation, he/she gets corresponding attribute values rather than the entire files.
Denis and Madhubala [15] present a hybridization of data encryption method for sheltering the diagnoses information in healthcare image. The projected method was designed by integrating 2D-DWT-2 L or 2D-DWT-1 L steganography using the presented hybrid encryption system. The hybrid encryption system was constructed by employing Rivest–Shamir–Adleman (RSA) and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) approaches for securing diagnoses information that embed with RGB channel of healthcare cover images. In [16], Evolutionary Algorithms, such as the Memetic Algorithm are utilized to encrypt the text message. Then, the encoded data is injected into the healthcare image with DWT 1 level and 2 levels. The reverse approach of the Memetic Algorithm was executed once removing hidden messages in the encrypted letter.
In this study, a new BPPIE-ODL technique has been developed to accomplish security and classification on IoT healthcare applications. The major goal of the BPPIE-ODL technique is to securely transmit the encrypted medical images captured by IoT devices and performs classification process at the cloud server. The proposed BPPIE-ODL technique follows several subprocesses namely IoT based data acquisition, signcryption, DFA based optimal key generation, SqueezeNet feature extractor, Nadam hyperparameter optimizer, and SMC. Fig. 1 illustrates the overall process of BPPIE-ODL technique.
Figure 1: Overall process of BPPIE-ODL technique
3.1 Image Encryption: Signcryption with Optimal Key Generation Process
Initially, the IoT devices can be utilized for capturing the medical images which are then encrypted by the use of signcryption approach before transmitting to the cloud server. An important function of this work is for developing mutually authenticated data broadcast protocols which offer secret, integrity, and authenticity of information [17]. Primarily, the typical data is assumed for security procedure which is encrypted and decrypt technique, at this point DFA based signcryption approach was presented. The drive of optimally key selective from security method was selecting optimum private as well as public keys from both senders as well as receiver sides. Afterward, the data is encrypted, it’s saved from the cloud or relevant region, then optimally private key was employed to data decryption technique, at this point the optimally key was achieved dependent upon the main function as maximal PSNR value and this presented technique was executed from MATLAB platform.
A novel approach to public key cryptography was Signcryption that concurrently fulfills both the element of digital signatures and open key encryption with minimum cost. The property contained from signcryption is Non-repudiation, Secret, Integrity, and Unforgeability. Any signcryption has more elements namely Public verifiability and forwarding confidentiality of secret communication [17]. The communication forwarded of past encoding data was extremely secured by presented DFA signcryption with optimum key selective.
The signcryption signifies the public-key primitive that constitute 2 essential cryptographic gadget that is able of making sure the non-repudiation, privacy, and honesty. This initialized method initializes the prime number, hash function (HF) with key. It can develop the private as well as public keys to both the sender and receiver. For increasing the data security, the projected approach employs the ideal private key by optimized approach.
Initialization:-
Sender Key pair
Receiver key pairs
3.1.2 Optimal Key Generation Process
For effectively choosing the optimal keys involved at the sender and receiver sides, the DFA can be utilized. DFA is stimulating the swarming behavior of dragonflies [18]. The purpose for swarming is hunting or migration (static swarm or dynamic swarm, correspondingly). During static swarm, smaller group of dragonflies moves over a smaller region for hunting other insects. This type of swarming Behavior includes abrupt changes and local movements. During dynamic swarming, a large number of dragonflies create an individual group and move in one direction for a long distance [19]. The abovementioned behaviors are considered the primary motivation of DFA. For directing artificial dragonfly to different paths, five weights have been applied, that is alignment weight
Here, X shows the location for the existing individual,
whereas V denotes the velocity of
In which N indicates the neighbourhood size,
Now
where X represent the location of existing dragonfly individual,
In which w represent the inertia weight;
Once the step vector estimation is completed, the estimation for the location vector starts by:
In which t designates the existing iteration. The DFA derives a fitness function for optimal key generation process, as given below.
The objective of the DFA is to select the optimal keys for the signcryption process in such a way that the PSNR can be maximized.
In this work, BC can be utilized as a distributed data saving approach for generating a ledger, which permits access to the users and prevents third party’s access to encrypted data. The BC is an immutable distributed data base for that novel time-stamped transaction was append and group as to hash-chain of blocks [19]. The fundamental BC protocols determine that several copies of such blocks are created and maintained in a distributed fashion. An important aspect of this protocol was decided that network of participants, recognized that miners, is found consensus on existing state of BC. It can be various kinds of BC structures (that is, permission-less, permissioned, public, and private). There are 2 main approaches to the similar such as Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS). When these tasks are done, a novel transaction is together with the BC. All blocks have of unique code named as hash that also comprises the hash of preceding block from the chains, and is utilized for connecting the block composed from a particular order. Some miner has to execute a group of calculations for establishing their credibility as a leader. This computation resolves a puzzle for mapping arbitrarily size data to set size.
Generally, a leader is selected from one of these 2 approaches. In PoW, several miners try for solving the puzzles, and the one that finishes primary transmits to the group proof that the work was complete. Another miner then validates that the work completed is correct. If all confirm this, it can be choose that specific miner as leader. An initial drive of block is for maintaining a list of verified transactions utilizing a cryptographic hash function. The hash function was effectual due to the subsequent properties:
• It creates a resultant of set length irrespective of length of the input.
• It can be deterministic that represents that it makes a similar result to a provided input.
• It can be irreversible signifies that obtaining a similar input in the outcome is not feasible.
• Some slight perturbation to the original input creates novel output.
• The hash computation is quick with lesser overhead.
The block from the BC was connected to first of all genesis blocks and is verified by hashes. Fig. 2 illustrates the structure of BC. Every block was related to the connections of every hash that implies all the blocks comprise the preceding hash, and these obtain more hashed from the next blocks. Some modify to hash because the chain that broken as the novel hash was until attach by next block from the chain. Recalculate the novel hash for restoring the chain needs several counts of computing powers. Besides, nonce was more than the miner is role with data for producing a hash that outputs 3 leading zeroes. If the miners establish a nonce which outcomes from its block’s hash being under the complexity threshold, the block was lastly assumed that valid, and it could be transmitted to network with miner taking a reward to its efforts.

Once the encrypted images are available at the cloud server, the decryption process is carried out followed by classification process, which involves Faster SqueezeNet feature extractor, Nadam hyperparameter optimizer, and SMC. The working of each module is elaborated in the succeeding sections.
During feature extraction process, the Faster SqueezeNet model can be applied to derive a useful collection of feature vectors. To enhance the real-time performance and accuracy of image classification, Fast SqueezeNet has been introduced [20]. To avoid overfitting, we add residual and BatchNorm models. Simultaneously, as DenseNet, we utilized concat for connecting distinct layers to improve the expressiveness of the initial layer in the network. Fast SqueezeNet contains three-block layers, four convolutional layers, a global average pooling layer and1 BatchNorm layer. Fast SqueezeNet is largely enhanced in a subsequent manner. Further, to enhance the data flow among layers, it can be imitated the DenseNet architecture and presented a distinct connection mode. This comprises a fire module and pooling layer, and lastly, the two concat layers are interconnected with the following convolutional layer. The existing layer receives each feature map of the previous layer, and utilize
whereas
To guarantee good network convergence, it is learn in the ResNet architecture and present distinct components that comprise a fire module and a pooling layer. At last, afterward, the two layers are summed, it is interconnected to the following convolution layers.
To optimally adjust the hyperparameter values of the SqueezeNet model, the Nadam optimizer can be utilized. The Nadam optimizer combines Nesterov-accelerated adaptive moment estimation into the Adam [21]. The great advantage of this combined technique is that employed adaptive moment estimating helps in carry out high precision step in the gradient direction through update of model parameters with momentum step beforehand the computation of gradient. The upgrading rule of Nadam can be described by the following:
whereas
At the final stage, the SMC model is utilized to allot proper class labels. The SMC layer could forecast the label probability of input data
whereas W and b represent the weights and bias of the entire deep networks,
In which
The experimental result analysis of the BPPIE-ODL model is validated utilizing the ISIC dataset [23].
