The creativity of thesis is that the significance of cyber security challenges in blockchain. The variety of enterprises, including those in the medical market, are the targets of cyberattacks. Hospitals and clinics are only two examples of medical facilities that are easy targets for cybercriminals, along with IoT-based medical devices like pacemakers. Cyberattacks in the medical field not only put patients' lives in danger but also have the potential to expose private and sensitive information. Reviewing and looking at the present and historical flaws and vulnerabilities in the blockchain-based IoT and medical institutions' equipment is crucial as they are sensitive, relevant, and of a medical character. This study aims to investigate recent and current weaknesses in medical equipment, of blockchain-based IoT, and institutions. Medical security systems are becoming increasingly crucial in blockchain-based IoT medical devices and digital adoption more broadly. It is gaining importance as a standalone medical device. Currently the use of software in medical market is growing exponentially and many countries have already set guidelines for quality control. The achievements of the thesis are medical equipment of blockchain-based IoT no longer exist in a vacuum, thanks to technical improvements and the emergence of electronic health records (EHRs). Increased EHR use among providers, as well as the demand for integration and connection technologies to improve clinical workflow, patient care solutions, and overall hospital operations, will fuel significant growth in the blockchain-based IoT market for linked medical devices. The need for blockchain technology and IoT-based medical device to enhance their health IT infrastructure and design and development techniques will only get louder in the future. Blockchain technology will be essential in the future of cybersecurity, because blockchain technology can be significantly improved with the cybersecurity adoption of IoT devices, i.e., via remote monitoring, reducing waiting time for emergency rooms, track assets, etc. This paper sheds the light on the benefits of the blockchain-based IoT market.

This paper analyzed four different perspectives on health care reform in Korea in terms of the basic values, formulated problems and reform plans, implementation methods, and supporting groups. The medical security plan was insisted by social security specialists and social activists focusing on the integration of medical insurance coops in order to enhancing equity and right of the people. However, its perspective was limited to promoting security instead of reforming health care system. The government proposed the health care reform plans in 1994 and in 1997, focusing on promoting efficiency by remedying many problems in health care delivery system. However, its implementation was not successful due to the lack of organizational and financial supporters. Recently, two opposite proposals were issued. The market reform plan paid attention to revitalizing the market function to promoting efficiency by allowing hospitals to treat private patients instead of applying the medical insurance regulation. The government reform plan focused on intensifying governmental planning and intervention in the health care sector in order to removing inefficiency and promoting equity with the supports of social activists and labor unions. Finally, this paper proposed an alternative plan to promote harmonious social relationship between actors in the health care system.

현재 의료기관간의 의료정보 공유는, 상호 협의된 의료기관간 DICOM(Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine) 및 HL7(Health Level 7)에서 제시한 표준 Protocol을 사용하거나 각 기관별 별도의 Protocol을 사용하고 있다.[1] 현재의 의료정보공유는 특정 의료기관들 끼리만 이루어지며, 해당 기관 간 전송구간 보안은 대부분 IPSec VPN을 적용하고 있다. 법적으로 요구되는 보안 요구사항을 만족하기 위해 사전 보안 제휴를 맺은 의료기관들만 의료정보를 공유하고 있기 때문인데, 이는 의료정보교류 범위를 제한하기 때문에 의료서비스의 발전을 보안이 저해하고 있다고 판단 할 수 있다. 본 논문은 의료정보공유 서비스와 의료정보 전송데이터 보호기술을 조사하여, 현재의 문제점을 확인 후 범국가적인 의료정보공유 서비스에 대한 전송데이터 보안 아키텍처의 수립을 지원하는데 그 목적이 있다.

Ransomware attacks, such as Conti, Ryuk, Petya, and Sodinokibi, that target medical institutions are increasing rapidly. In 2020, in the United States., ransomware attacks affected over 600 separate clinics, hospitals, and organizations, and more than 18 million patient records. The cost of these attacks is estimated to be almost $21 billion USD. The first death associated with a ransomware attack was reported in 2020 by the University Hospital of Düesseldorf in Germany. In the case of medical institutions, as introduced in the Medjack report issued by TrapX Labs, in many cases, attackers target medical devices that are relatively insecure and then penetrate deep into more critical network infrastructure, such as EMR servers. This paper introduces security vulnerabilities of hospital medical devices, considerations for ransomware response by medical institutions, and related technology trends.

In medical Institution, Electronic Health Record (EHR) is "must access information" to medical staff considering it as medical information. However, this unnecessary exploration of personal information must be treated confidentially because the information is highly related to other's private concerns. It is necessary that medical workers should be also restricted to their access to EHR depending on their roles and duties. As the result, this article explains that "EHR access control will be executed by differentiating authorized medical staff from non medical-related staff as well as EHR access will be only permitted to authorized medical staff depending on their work status conditions. By using Advanced RBAC model on medical situation, we expect to minimize unnecessary leak of EHR information; especially, emergency medical care is needed, access control is highly required depending on a person in charge of the cases or not, and restricted medical information defined by the patient one-self is only allowed to be accessed.

South Korea is not a wasteland of publicly funded health care-instead, it has a good medical social security system known as the national health insurance (NHI). The NHI of Korea has three unique features; (1) low premiums, low insurance fees, and low coverage; (2) obligatory designation of medical institutions; (3) and allowance of non-benefit services. These features have made hospitals and doctors interested in profit-seeking. However, the commercialization of medical institutions has taken place in both private- and public-established sectors. A basic problem of commercialization is the co-existence of the obligatory designation of medical institutions and non-benefit services. The problem became worse in the Kim Dae-Jung government because it officially permitted non-benefit services. Since 2000, the Korean government has consistently pursued benefit extension policies, but the coverage rates of the NHI have stagnated. In addition, premiums and current medical expenses have markedly increased because policy-makers have emphasized accessibility to the NHI, while ignoring important principles of medical social security such as a needs-based approach and patient-referral system. In order to resolve the commercialization problem, the obligatory designation of medical institutions to the NHI should be changed to a contract system, and non-benefit services should be prohibited at NHI institutions. We must re-establish the patient-referral system via a needs-based approach. We also need to build a primary healthcare system and public health policies. We should make a long-term plan for healthcare reform.
