Description
Abdullah Ayub Khan and co-authors design a safer frame for wearable health data in a 2025 paper. Wrist devices and patches now track pulse and other signs all day. That flow of data helps care fit each person. Yet it also raises fears about privacy, tampering, and systems that cannot talk to each other.
The frame pairs blockchain, a shared tamper-proof ledger, with zero knowledge proofs. Those proofs let one side confirm a fact without seeing the raw data. Smart contracts, small programs on the ledger, set who may open which data. In tests, the setup raised data integrity and protection scores by 99.33 percent over the base case. It also cut delays and beat central systems on safety, the authors say.
