Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Data breaches in healthcare are increasingly caused by insider threats, yet traditional logging systems remain vulnerable to tampering. This paper proposes a hybrid security framework for medical data in Kazakhstan, combining blockchain for immutable log storage with machine learning for automated anomaly detection. We introduce a dual-backend architecture where a private Ethereum network secures access logs, while a separate analysis module utilizes supervised learning algorithms to identify suspicious behaviour patterns in real-time. To validate the system, we generated a region-specific synthetic dataset compliant with Kazakhstani national identification standards (IIN). Experimental results demonstrate that the system effectively secures audit trails against modification and detects anomalous access patterns with high accuracy. The proposed solution addresses the critical gap between data integrity and proactive threat detection, offering a scalable architecture compliant with data privacy regulations.
