Download or read book Security and Privacy for Mobile Healthcare Networks written by Kuan Zhang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-09 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines state-of-art research on designing healthcare applications with the consideration of security and privacy. It explains the Mobile Healthcare Network (MHN) architecture and its diverse applications, and reviews the existing works on security and privacy for MHNs. Critical future challenges and research problems are also identified. Using a Quality-of-Protection perspective, the authors provide valuable insights on security and privacy preservation for MHNs. Some promising solutions are proposed to accommodate the issues of secure health data transmission, misbehavior detection, health data processing with privacy preservation and access control in MHNs. Specifically, the secure health data aggregation explores social spots to help forward health data and enable users to select the optimal relay according to their social ties and health data priority. The secure aggregation achieves the desirable delivery ratio with reasonable communication costs and lower delay for the data in different priorities. A proposed misbehavior detection scheme distinguishes Sybil attackers from normal users by comparing their mobile contacts and pseudonym changing behaviors. The detection accuracy is high enough to resist various Sybil attacks including forgery. In addition, the health data processing scheme can analyze the encrypted health data and preserve user’s privacy at the same time. Attribute based access control can achieve fine-grained acces s control with user-defined access policy in MHNs. Security and Privacy for Mobile Healthcare Networks is designed for researchers and advanced-level students interested in healthcare security and secure data transmission.

Download or read book Advanced Healthcare Systems written by Rohit Tanwar and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ADVANCED HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS This book offers a complete package involving the incubation of machine learning, AI, and IoT in healthcare that is beneficial for researchers, healthcare professionals, scientists, and technologists. The applications and challenges of machine learning and artificial intelligence in the Internet of Things (IoT) for healthcare applications are comprehensively covered in this book. IoT generates big data of varying data quality; intelligent processing and analysis of this big data are the keys to developing smart IoT applications, thereby making space for machine learning (ML) applications. Due to its computational tools that can substitute for human intelligence in the performance of certain tasks, artificial intelligence (AI) makes it possible for machines to learn from experience, adjust to new inputs and perform human-like tasks. Since IoT platforms provide an interface to gather data from various devices, they can easily be deployed into AI/ML systems. The value of AI in this context is its ability to quickly mesh insights from data and automatically identify patterns and detect anomalies in the data that smart sensors and devices generate—information such as temperature, pressure, humidity, air quality, vibration, and sound—that can be really helpful to rapid diagnosis. Audience This book will be of interest to researchers in artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, machine learning as well as information technologists working in the healthcare sector.
