Security and Privacy of Medical Internet of Things Devices for Smart Homes

The Internet of Things, IoT, provides various applications in the health and care sector, enhancing assisted living, and the ability to remotely monitor patients in hospitals, at homes, and in care facilities [1]. Additionally, many patients who require constant health monitoring prefer the comfort of home monitoring to hospital environments [2]. Therefore, with the increased interest in smart home configurations and the need for Medical IoT, MIoT, device development, we may witness a rise in in-home smart healthcare set-ups. In this paper, we present a Ph.D. research proposing an improve architecture for ensuring security and privacy of smart medical devices in smart home environments.
