医疗保健应用被认为是无线传感器网络有前景的领域，可以使用无线医疗传感器网络 (WMSN) 来监控患者。当前 WMSN 医疗保健研究趋势侧重于患者可靠通信、患者移动性和节能路由等。然而，在医疗保健应用中部署新技术而不考虑安全性会使患者隐私容易受到攻击。此外，个人的生理数据非常敏感。因此，安全性是医疗保健应用的首要要求，尤其是在患者隐私的情况下，如果患者患有令人尴尬的疾病。本文讨论了使用 WMSN 的医疗保健应用程序中的安全和隐私问题。我们重点介绍一些使用无线医疗传感器网络的流行医疗保健项目，并讨论其安全性。我们的目标是激发对这些关键问题的讨论，因为出于道德和法律原因，医疗保健应用的成功直接取决于患者的安全和隐私。此外，我们还讨论了现有安全机制的问题，并概述了此类应用程序的重要安全要求。此外，本文还回顾了最近提出的在无线医疗场景中提供安全解决方案的现有方案。最后，本文总结了未来使用 WMSN 的医疗保健应用程序需要探索的开放安全研究问题。
Healthcare applications are considered as promising fields for wireless sensor networks, where patients can be monitored using wireless medical sensor networks (WMSNs). Current WMSN healthcare research trends focus on patient reliable communication, patient mobility, and energy-efficient routing, as a few examples. However, deploying new technologies in healthcare applications without considering security makes patient privacy vulnerable. Moreover, the physiological data of an individual are highly sensitive. Therefore, security is a paramount requirement of healthcare applications, especially in the case of patient privacy, if the patient has an embarrassing disease. This paper discusses the security and privacy issues in healthcare application using WMSNs. We highlight some popular healthcare projects using wireless medical sensor networks, and discuss their security. Our aim is to instigate discussion on these critical issues since the success of healthcare application depends directly on patient security and privacy, for ethic as well as legal reasons. In addition, we discuss the issues with existing security mechanisms, and sketch out the important security requirements for such applications. In addition, the paper reviews existing schemes that have been recently proposed to provide security solutions in wireless healthcare scenarios. Finally, the paper ends up with a summary of open security research issues that need to be explored for future healthcare applications using WMSNs.
