چکیده
In recent years, there is enormous growth of smart systems that have been developed for range of applications. This development is focused on Internet-ofThings (IoT), which will eventually, transform IoT into system of systems. Such smart systems are widely utilized in healthcare; however, the wide scope of such systems is also vulnerable to security and privacy issues. This paper proposes a security framework for wireless body area network (WBAN) based smart healthcare system. The proposed framework implies the security mechanism by considering low power and low resources devices within the WBAN. This is not just reduces the complexity for resource constrained devices, but ensures the availability and data integrity in simple, yet effective manner. Keywords—Wireless body area network (WBAN) security; Internet-of-Things; smart healthcare; e-Health systems; ZigBee security framework; IoT architecture
