以前在台式计算机上执行的许多功能现在都在智能手机上执行。智能手机提供了便利性、便携性和连接性。当智能手机用于远程保健时，敏感数据总是会被访问，这使得设备需要用户认证以确保数据保护。智能手机的用户身份验证可以帮助减轻潜在的健康保险便携性和责任法案（HIPAA）违规行为，并保护敏感的患者信息，同时还可以促进智能手机在日常生活和医疗保健中的便利性。本文介绍并研究了智能手机用户可用的几种类型的身份验证方法，以帮助确保敏感数据的安全性。这些认证方法在远程医疗中的应用进行了讨论。
Many functions previously conducted on desktop computers are now performed on smartphones. Smartphones provide convenience, portability, and connectivity. When smartphones are used in the conduct of telehealth, sensitive data is invariably accessed, rendering the devices in need of user authentication to ensure data protection. User authentication of smartphones can help mitigate potential Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) breaches and keep sensitive patient information protected, while also facilitating the convenience of smartphones within everyday life and healthcare. This paper presents and examines several types of authentication methods available to smartphone users to help ensure security of sensitive data from attackers. The applications of these authentication methods in telehealth are discussed.
