Abstract: The major reason for naming this project as “Secured Electronic Hospital Database Management System” is to secure the database holding the personal medical record or data of the patient. Various issues are there in maintaining the records in the current used system which makes it difficult most of the records are currently held manually using paper and record books which are very time consuming and not cost friendly. It takes time for doctors to access the data, this also affects the quality of the health care provided by the hospitals and also are highly cost demanding and also consume a lot of time. It is easy for a people to either access the data illegally by using several manual methods or to hack and to access all the important information and exploit the information to wrong hands. It is very important to have a highly secured database especially when containing highly confidential information such as a hospitals databse. Patients generally wouldn’t want to disclose their actual health issues for several reasons such as fear of losing their privacy and security of their health-related information. This project’s sole purpose is to solve all of the above problems in a more efficient and cost-effective manner with an aim of reducing the time and resources currently required for such tasks so that the institution’s resources may be efficiently utilized. This project attempts to protect the privacy of hospitals records from hackers and also viruses, Trojan horses etc.
