“…In the healthcare industry, most wearable medical devices that support general wellness are grouped in Class I because they do not meet the current medical device standards; other devices meant for medical reasons are grouped in Class II and III, which need strict certification procedures and regulatory approvals; and the International Electrotechnical Commission 62304 reference standard for medical software only describes the software lifecycle. These defects have become a major challenge for software engineers developing intelligent health homes [110].…”

“…The Data Encryption Standard (DES), Triple Data Encryption Standard (Triple DES), Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA), Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA), Secure Hash Algorithm 2 (SHA-2), SHA-3, Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC), digital certificates, and quantum cryptography are the cryptographic algorithms employed in SHS to encrypt healthcare data at end-to-end, rest, in transit, and during backup processes[35][110][140][141]. Medical data are securely encrypted before being transmitted to the cloud or between storage and transmission[45][142].…”

“…The blockchain stores verified medical data that cannot be edited or removed randomly. The shared ledger protects blockchain blocks using cryptographic methods, ensuring medical data integrity, transparency, and privacy[110][185]. Blockchain improves the interoperability of existing medical records by using an immutable database and masking user identity via public key transactions.…”

Cutting-edge technologies have been widely employed in healthcare delivery, resulting in transformative advances and promising enhanced patient care, operational efficiency, and resource usage. However, the proliferation of networked devices and data-driven systems has created new cybersecurity threats that jeopardize the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of critical healthcare data. This review paper offers a comprehensive evaluation of the current state of cybersecurity in the context of smart healthcare, presenting a structured taxonomy of its existing cyber threats, mechanisms and essential roles. This study explored cybersecurity and smart healthcare systems (SHSs). It identified and discussed the most pressing cyber threats and attacks that SHSs face, including fake base stations, medjacking, and Sybil attacks. This study examined the security measures deployed to combat cyber threats and attacks in SHSs. These measures include cryptographic-based techniques, digital watermarking, digital steganography, and many others. Patient data protection, the prevention of data breaches, and the maintenance of SHS integrity and availability are some of the roles of cybersecurity in ensuring sustainable smart healthcare. The long-term viability of smart healthcare depends on the constant assessment of cyber risks that harm healthcare providers, patients, and professionals. This review aims to inform policymakers, healthcare practitioners, and technology stakeholders about the critical imperatives and best practices for fostering a secure and resilient smart healthcare ecosystem by synthesizing insights from multidisciplinary perspectives, such as cybersecurity, healthcare management, and sustainability research. Understanding the most recent cybersecurity measures is critical for controlling escalating cyber threats and attacks on SHSs and networks and encouraging intelligent healthcare delivery.
