摘要

背景：无线体域网（WBAN）是现代医疗保健系统不可或缺的组成部分，可提供连续的健康监测和实时数据传输。医疗数据传输的敏感性使得安全性成为无线体域网的一个重要问题：本研究探讨了基于椭圆曲线加密算法（ECC）的 Diffie-Hellman 密钥交换算法（ECDH）的应用，以增强 WBAN 的安全性：研究调查了 ECC 在这种情况下的适用性，并评估了在无线局域网中实施 ECDH 的性能和安全影响：结果：研究结果表明，ECDH 为 WBAN 中的安全密钥交换提供了一种稳健且计算效率高的解决方案，解决了固有的漏洞：采用基于 ECC 的 ECDH 可增强 WBAN 中数据的保密性和完整性，提高信任度，促进这些网络在医疗保健应用中的广泛使用。这项研究有助于丰富有关无线局域网安全措施的知识，并为敏感医疗信息的安全传输开辟了新的途径。

Enhancing security in Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) with ECC-based Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange algorithm (ECDH).

Background: Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) are integral to modern healthcare systems, providing continuous health monitoring and real-time data transmission. The sensitivity of medical data being transmitted makes security a significant concern in WBANs.

Objective: This study explores the application of the Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)-based Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange (ECDH) algorithm to enhance security within WBANs.

Method: The study investigates the suitability of ECC for this context and evaluates the performance and security implications of implementing ECDH in WBANs.

Results: The findings reveal that ECDH provides a robust and computationally efficient solution for secure key exchange in WBANs, addressing inherent vulnerabilities.

Conclusion: The adoption of ECC-based ECDH is poised to bolster data confidentiality and integrity in WBANs, promoting trust and widespread use of these networks in healthcare applications. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge regarding security measures in WBANs and opens new avenues for the secure transmission of sensitive medical information.

期刊介绍： Technology and Health Care is intended to serve as a forum for the presentation of original articles and technical notes, observing rigorous scientific standards. Furthermore, upon invitation, reviews, tutorials, discussion papers and minisymposia are featured. The main focus of THC is related to the overlapping areas of engineering and medicine. The following types of contributions are considered: 1.Original articles: New concepts, procedures and devices associated with the use of technology in medical research and clinical practice are presented to a readership with a widespread background in engineering and/or medicine. In particular, the clinical benefit deriving from the application of engineering methods and devices in clinical medicine should be demonstrated. Typically, full length original contributions have a length of 4000 words, thereby taking duly into account figures and tables. 2.Technical Notes and Short Communications: Technical Notes relate to novel technical developments with relevance for clinical medicine. In Short Communications, clinical applications are shortly described. 3.Both Technical Notes and Short Communications typically have a length of 1500 words. Reviews and Tutorials (upon invitation only): Tutorial and educational articles for persons with a primarily medical background on principles of engineering with particular significance for biomedical applications and vice versa are presented. The Editorial Board is responsible for the selection of topics. 4.Minisymposia (upon invitation only): Under the leadership of a Special Editor, controversial or important issues relating to health care are highlighted and discussed by various authors. 5.Letters to the Editors: Discussions or short statements (not indexed).
