Usable-Security Assessment of Healthcare Software System Through Fuzzy ANP-TOPSIS Method

To address this research possibility, the present empirical study undertakes the assessment of usable-security of healthcare software system. The attributes considered for the assessment are: four factors at first level; thirteen sub-factors at the second level with six Hospital Management Software Systems (HMSS) as alternatives. Fuzzy Analytic Network Process (F-ANP) has been applied for evaluating the weights of the attributes and their relationship with one other. Finally, fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solutions (F-TOPSIS) technique has been applied and alternatives ranking has been estimated. Results of the study conclude that HMSS-1 provides better usable–security. Furthermore, as analysed, F-TOPSIS produced more convincing results in assessing the usable-security of the HMSS. This research analysis also corroborates that when compared with the Classical ANP TOPSIS, the Fuzzy-ANP TOPSIS is the ideal methodology for producing accurate results.
