A Review on Data Securing Techniques using Internet of Medical Things

Abstract

At present, the traditional healthcare system is completely replaced by the revolutionary technique, the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). Internet of Medical Things is the IoT hub that comprises of medical devices and applications which are interconnected through online computer networks. The basic principle of IoMT is machine-to-machine communication that takes place online. The major goal of IoMT is to reduce frequent or unwanted visits to the hospitals which makes it comfortable and is also highly preferred by the older people. Another advantage of this methodology is that the interpreted or collected data is stored in cloud modules unlike amazon and Mhealth, making it accessible remotely. Although there are countless advantages in IoMT, the critical factor lies in data security or encryption. A surplus number of threat related to devices, connectivity, and cloud might occur under unforeseen or threatening circumstances which makes the person in the situation helpless. Yet, with the help of data security techniques designed especially for Internet of Medical Things, it is possible to address these challenges. In this paper, a review on data securing techniques for the internet of medical things is made along with a discussion on related concepts.
