| Abstract | The fusion of health-focused technologies and smart city initiatives has opened up new avenues for creative approaches to building safe and secure urban environments. In order to fulfill the goal of creating a Smart Healthy City, this article investigates the creation of a secure digital twin framework based on blockchain technology. Urban areas, infrastructure, and health-related data can be dynamically represented with the help of digital twins, which are virtual copies of actual objects or systems. Together with blockchain technology, a decentralized, immutable ledger, this framework creates a safe environment for exchanging and managing private health data in the context of smart cities. Due to its decentralized structure, which lowers the possibility of unwanted access and improves privacy for health-related data, blockchain technology’s built-in security features guarantee data integrity. The innovative framework’s numerous applications in enhancing health and well-being are emphasized in the article. The integration of blockchain and digital twins facilitates resilient and transparent health infrastructure within smart cities, enabling tasks like tracking spread of infectious diseases, securely managing electronic health records, and optimizing allocation of healthcare resources. The article further emphasizes how this secure digital twin framework can be used to improve citizen trust and engagement. The framework gives citizens more power to actively participate in their own well-being within the larger framework of a smart city by giving them more control over their health data and guaranteeing transparent and traceable data transactions. A safer, more effective, and more resilient urban environment is fostered by the proposed blockchain-based secure digital twin framework, which emerges as a fundamental pillar for the development of Smart Healthy Cities as urbanization and health considerations become more intertwined. © 2024 Scrivener Publishing LLC. |
