Abstract

Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) system is one of the most important elements of the internet of things (IoT) concept. Actually, the major objective of this technology is to improve the healthcare industry including remote medical surveillance and emergency medical response systems. However, because of the presence of wireless communication support, this technology is very vulnerable to several types of attacks. Thence, the security has become one of the most important main challenges to take up. In this paper, we start to give the main concepts of the WBAN system, its communication architecture and an overview of security problem in WBAN system. Moreover, our work covers the description of a new classification of the different attacks in WBAN network. This classification allows us, and interested researcher to ameliorate or create a robust attack detection mechanism corresponding to each attack.
