Abstract
Abstract. The Internet of Things (IoT) has frequently been used by people as a way to facilitate their connection to all types of devices. Thanks to this technology, healthcare field can also benefit from a perfect interaction taking advantage of a better diagnostic and treatment that facilitate life for both patients and doctors. Unfortunately, and similarly to other domains based on technology, the smart healthcare does also use IT programs and wireless network to exchange and analyse data the fact that makes it highly exposed to malicious actions. Moreover, if a good security level is not provided in order to save patients information once hackers get access to the mentioned data, patients might be affected or even lose their lives. This paper presents an overview of the security issues in smart healthcare fields and gives a state of art of some well-known network attacks in the field of smart healthcare. We also propose an impact evaluation of those attacks by adopting four scales of evaluation ‘Minor’, ‘Significant’, ‘Serious’ and ‘Critical’ proposed by EBIOS Gravity assessment. The proposed evaluation is classified based on three criteria: sensor’s nature, application field and intervention time.
Highlights
Smart healthcare can be defined as a set of health services that uses different technologies like Internet of Things (IoT) and mobile Internet in order to allow communication happen between stakeholders in the health system, this process facilitates access to medical information anytime
4.2.3 Sybil and Replay Attacks: The same analysis used for Hole attacks and Denial of Service attack are applicable for the 1st domain, we notice that the gravity in domain 2 and 3 is greater compared to wormhole and Greyhole attacks
This paper presented a state of art on some well-known attacks in smart healthcare fields
Summary
Smart healthcare can be defined as a set of health services that uses different technologies like IoT and mobile Internet in order to allow communication happen between stakeholders in the health system, this process facilitates access to medical information anytime. To facilitate access to healthcare for patients, some IoT projects like intelligent health monitoring systems have been proposed for being equipped with "health sensors" that helps both the doctor and the patient to consult vital parameters like the level of the arterial pressure, the level of sugar and the heart rate, this system warns the doctor immediately if it exceeds a threshold. This consultation involves sending the data to the cloud or fog server (Figure 1) allowing the doctor and nurses via their smartphones to monitor the patient's condition anytime and anywhere in the world (Pundir et al, 2020a). A discussion and conclusion are given as the last part of this work
