Mitigating Security Risks on Privacy of Sensitive Data used in Cloud-based ERP Applications

This paper explains the security risk of data being used in Cloud-based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application and challenges of implementation in healthcare/hospitals. It further explains the challenges faced during and after implementation using SaaS (Software as a Service) and how to overcome these challenges. This study additionally provides a comparison before and after cloud implementation in hospitals and advantages/disadvantages about usage of Cloud-based ERP in the healthcare sector and how it can help to manage and care patients efficiently in an economical way. Survey methodology was used for data collection. Study of survey results proves that Cloud based ERP products are robust and provide secured storage for data and use high end encryption methods to handle data security and privacy. Cloud-based applications have changed the way organizations used to work and provided them the tools to be more focused on innovation and other areas and not bother on maintenance and upgrade of server and back-up servers (Disaster Server), Business Continue Planning (BCP servers and their OS (Operating System) along with other software. There are multiple benefits of Cloud-based applications though there are concerns related to data security about confidentiality and integrity considering data is critical and sensitive. This paper is addressing the issues during Cloud Based ERP implementation for an organization, e.g. data security and data privacy along with the ways to address them.
