Book Intelligent Data Security Solutions for e Health Applications

Download or read book Intelligent Data Security Solutions for e Health Applications written by Amit Kumar Singh and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E-health applications such as tele-medicine, tele-radiology, tele-ophthalmology, and tele-diagnosis are very promising and have immense potential to improve global healthcare. They can improve access, equity, and quality through the connection of healthcare facilities and healthcare professionals, diminishing geographical and physical barriers. One critical issue, however, is related to the security of data transmission and access to the technologies of medical information. Currently, medical-related identity theft costs billions of dollars each year and altered medical information can put a person’s health at risk through misdiagnosis, delayed treatment or incorrect prescriptions. Yet, the use of hand-held devices for storing, accessing, and transmitting medical information is outpacing the privacy and security protections on those devices. Researchers are starting to develop some imperceptible marks to ensure the tamper-proofing, cost effective, and guaranteed originality of the medical records. However, the robustness, security and efficient image archiving and retrieval of medical data information against these cyberattacks is a challenging area for researchers in the field of e-health applications. Intelligent Data Security Solutions for e-Health Applications focuses on cutting-edge academic and industry-related research in this field, with particular emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches and novel techniques to provide security solutions for smart applications. The book provides an overview of cutting-edge security techniques and ideas to help graduate students, researchers, as well as IT professionals who want to understand the opportunities and challenges of using emerging techniques and algorithms for designing and developing more secure systems and methods for e-health applications. Investigates new security and privacy requirements related to eHealth technologies and large sets of applications Reviews how the abundance of digital information on system behavior is now being captured, processed, and used to improve and strengthen security and privacy Provides an overview of innovative security techniques which are being developed to ensure the guaranteed authenticity of transmitted, shared or stored data/information

Book Defending Against Node targeted Attacks in Wireless Networks

Download or read book Defending Against Node targeted Attacks in Wireless Networks written by Wenjun Gu and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: In recent years, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) have witnessed dramatic development due to the variety of applications and cost effectiveness in network deployment. However, we believe the wide application of both WSNs and WLANs in the future is contingent on the security of the networks. Considering that wireless nodes in both WSNs and WLANs are less powerful and more vulnerable than their wired counterparts, we focus on studying the attacks targeting on wireless nodes and their defenses in this dissertation. First, we study node destroying attack in WSNs and its defense. In search based node destroying attack we model, the attacker walks through the network using signal detecting equipment to locate active sensors, and then destroys them. To defend against such attack, we design a defense approach based on sacrificial nodes. The core principle of our defense is to trade short term local coverage for long term global coverage through the sacrificial node assisted attack notification and sensors states switching. Second, we study node penetrating attack in WSNs and its defense. In node penetrating attack, the attacker is able to penetrate a certain percentage of the nodes in the network, and access all the secret information stored in the penetrated nodes. We propose a defense methodology called network decoupling to deal with such attack, based on which we design two new key management protocols, i.e., RKP-DE and RKP-DEA. Third, we study node spoofing attack in IEEE 802.11 based WLANs. Such attack takes advantage of the security vulnerabilities of a special but important type of frames in 802.11 WLANs called null data frame. We first model and implement the node spoofing attack, and evaluate its effectiveness based on extensive experiments. Then, we design and implement our defense mechanism based on embedded temporal information in the genuine null data frames. With the popularity and wide applications of WSNs and WLANs, security is becoming increasingly critical to the success of such wireless networks. We hope that our work in this dissertation can provide strong foundations and further motivate other researchers to explore this area in the future.
