Securing Pervasive Communications in Healthcare Systems

ABSTRACT

Current healthcare and wellness monitoring devices make medical follow-up convenient. However, the decentralization of data processing and extensive reliance on network connectivity introduces security threats. Current smart health devices often focus their attention more on usability and design rather than solidifying underlying security measures. While web-based security is available, device-level security in smart health devices needs to be explored further. In this paper, we propose an advanced security module that can be used in any generic healthcare and wellness monitoring smart devices. This generic infrastructure can be used as a macro in any available technologies to enhance overall security.
