Secure and Wearable Computing in WBANs

One can recognize today's world as a place full of threats. Every field is vulnerable to threat, be it banking, education, government or medical. In health sector Wearable Computing and Smart Wearable Devices are gaining popularity. With this emerging success of these devices, the risk of threat is also increasing rapidly. People who are disabled, aged or children can get update about their health by monitoring themselves easily being in their comfort zone with the help of wearable devices. To gain the trust of people we are focusing on data privacy and data security so that more and more people could take maximum benefit from the facilities provided. Another challenge is the fear of patients to leak out their medical histories over wireless channels. Our paper is designed to provide a brief description about the technologically advanced wearable sensors which takes care and monitor the health in a smarter way and also provide a secure transmission channel for information to go through. In our paper we are using encryption key technique and the biometric sensor technology to make our channel secure. We have tested the working of these wearable devices in real test bed in Neemrana, Rajasthan (India)Hospital.
