The Internet of things (IoT) is an active area in the current research community due to the improvement in mobile computing and wireless networks. Currently, the IoT is involved in many fields like smart cities, smart health monitoring, smart tracking, and smart factory; therefore, it is introducing new research opportunities and industrial revolutions. Smart health, in particular, is very important and trendy domain for researchers and practitioners due to its continuous monitoring of health of patients. The objective of smart health is to provide medical facilities to patients at anytime and anywhere. The smart health monitoring systems are mostly connected with the wireless network medium that is extremely vulnerable for threats. However various attacks are observed that can endanger these health monitoring applications and systems. These attacks include Denial of Service (DoS) Attack, Fingerprint and Timing-based Snooping, Router Attack, Select and Forwarding attack, Sensor attack and Replay Attack. In this paper, we discuss these attacks with their impact on health monitoring systems with some suggestive measures from our research findings.
Cloud Technology is a most challenging modern area in the field of modern technologies in which assets (e.g., CPU and capacity) can be rented and discharged by the clients through internet on-demand basis. The cloud computing has been giving virtual computing services to a little, medium and extensive industries, and services, for example, infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS). Cloud computing has a great combination with the agile software development as a research area. Many researchers worked in Agile Cloud field. The software industries are using the agile methodology for efficient software development need some platform to get quick feedback from the client. Therefore, the agile-cloud is a great combination for it but due to security reasons that directly influence the less adoption of cloud in software industries. This paper reports the survey results of software industries. The total of seven IT industries and many professionals was involved in this paper. However, this paper also contributes and reveals how existing issues can affect agile-cloud adoption for efficient software development. Furthermore, we do not find any type of survey conducted in Pakistan's software industries-related to cloud-agile adoption.INDEX TERMS Agile-cloud computing, industries adoption, challenges and future directions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
