There are many definitions in Electronic Health Record (EHR), such as the electronic record that holds patient information on a health record system operated by healthcare providers [1]. Although EHR has a good effect on healthcare services, development in many healthcare institutions globally, particularly in poor nations, is delayed due to numerous common problems. Patient data security has been a problem since the beginning of medical history and is an important issue in modern day. Initiated by the idea of confidentiality, the Oath of Hippocrates has proved to be an honorable activity in clinical and medical ethics. It is of highest importance to protect the privacy and confidentiality of patient information; security is trustworthy. Medical record security generally involves privacy and confidentiality [2]. Cloud computing provides the option of accessing massive amounts of patient information in a short period of time. This makes it easier for an unauthorized person to obtain patient records. It confirms this feeling by saying “illegal access to traditional medical records (paper-based) has always been conceivable, but computer introduction increases a little problem to a large problem.”

Cloud computing is a concept for easy, on-demand access to a common pool of configurable computer resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services), which may easily be provided and disclosed with minimal administration effort or engagement from service providers [4]. The newest, most exciting, and comprehensive solution in the world of IT is cloud computing. Its major purpose is to use the Internet or intranet to exchange resources for users [5]. Cloud computing is an affordable, automatically scalable, multi-tenant, and secure cloud service provider platform (CSP).
