Personal health record (PHR) system has become the most important platform to exchange health information, in which the patients can share and manage personal health information more effectively in cloud storage. However, the cloud server is unreliable, and the secure data of users may be disclosed. Therefore, a secure data sharing mechanism is developed in this research using the proposed session password, data access key, and circular interpolation (SKC)-based data-sharing approach for the secure sharing of PHR in the cloud. The proposed SKC-based data sharing approach provides high efficiency and high-security guarantee. It effectively satisfies various security properties, such as tamper resistance, openness, and decentralization. The proposed SKC-based data sharing approach is the reliable mechanism created for the doctors to share the PHR and to access the patient historical data while meeting the privacy preservation.
