A secure optimal routing protocol for medical data transmission using IoMT
This paper presents that a secure optimal cluster-based (SOptC) routing system for the delivery of medical data is framed for secure medical data transmission. The Modified-Chaotic Mine Blast Optimization (M-CMBO) method is used to efficiently cluster the described SOptC, which is constructed in three phases. The sensor nodes’ surroundings are aggregated without missing any key information in this stage. Followed by the stage one, the first step of cluster head selection is completed by the Modified-Planet Optimization (M-CH-PO) Algorithm, which optimizes a set of new design constraints for cluster head (CH) computation. In second stage, for the encryption and decryption of medical data, an enhanced lightweight crypto method is used that combines two block ciphers (RING-Simon). The objective of the RING-Simon algorithm is to enhance data security and dependability across a wireless network. Finally, the best route from CHs to sink is selected using a modified group searching (MGS) algorithm, which provides effective multi-path routing. The simulation results are demonstrating the effectiveness of our SOptC protocol over the many state-of-the-art protocols existing right now for this purpose the dataset of 78 patients (Anonymous) is used for simulation and validation purpose.
