SECURING IOT DEVICES IN HEALTHCARE

ABSTRACT IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) or HIoT (Healthcare IoT) has transformed patient monitoring, improving treatments and streamlining processes, but not without its fair share of risks. By means of a literature survey, this paper aims to examine current research on securing IoMT devices, observing the challenges involved, identifying critical security threats such as the Eavesdropping attacks with categorization of these threats, exploring potential security solutions and various other concepts. Finally, the paper explores future trends such as blockchain, machine learning and artificial intelligence, along with their potential application in healthcare data security. Keywords—Healthcare, IoMT, IoT, HIoT, cybersecurity, cryptography, security, vulnerabilities, cyberattacks, encryption, cloud.
