“…In sensor networks many security protocols with symmetric as well as asymmetric keys are employed to obtain privacy, reliability and accuracy during data transmission C. S. lang, et.al [6]. Whereas, the BSN is the different from other ad-hoc networks because of interference in body mobility and inadequate computing resources of human body, therefore simple and efficient authentication and confidentiality techniques are very important in BSN.…”

“…Whereas, some researchers introduce the hybrid approach for symmetric and asymmetric to increase the security and privacy in BSN. C. S. lang, et.al [6], presents a hybrid technique in a more effective way to implement authentication, integrity and confidentiality, all these conventional approaches are based on public or private keys to secure human body information in BSN.…”

Abstract. In Body Sensor Networks (BSN) several sensor nodes are attached on, inside or around human body to monitor vital sign signals such as, Electrocardiogram (ECG), Electroencephalogram (EEG), Blood pressure etc. The information from each sensor node is very significant; therefore privacy and security is very important during data transmission in BSN. The conventional cryptographic approaches make use of cryptographic keys to achieve authentication, and use of these keys not only require high resource utilization and computation time, but also consume large amount of energy, power and memory in BSN. Therefore, it is necessary to develop power efficient and less computational complex authentication technique for BSN. In this paper we design a novel biometric algorithm which is based on biometric feature Electrocardiogram (ECG) and uses Data Authentication Function (DAF) for the security of BSN instead of utilizing traditional key generation procedure. Our proposed algorithm is compared with two cryptographic authentication techniques, Data Encryption Standard (DES) which is symmetric or private-key based encryption technique and RSA (Rivest Shamir Adleman) which is asymmetric or public-key based encryption scheme. Simulation is performed in MATLAB and results explain that our algorithm is efficient in terms of transmission time utilization and average remaining energy.

“…A hybrid security protocol for WBANs is presented by Jang et al [64] in, called Hybrid Security-WBAN (HS-WBAN), which applies a combination of symmetric key and public key cryptography. HS-WBAN uses symmetric key cryptography for the communication between sensors and asymmetric keys for the communication between the sensor and sink.…”

WBANs are of the promising technologies, applied in the e-healthcare systems, for extracting and transferring critical medical data from patient body. In WBANs, the privacy and integrity of the patient's private medical data are very important, as a result, the WBANs communications and even communication with other E-Healthcare components should be authenticated and secured. This paper provides a complete survey and analysis of the various authentication schemes proposed in the literature to improve the WBANs security. Besides, it classifies the proposed authentication schemes based on the applied techniques for authentication and illustrates each scheme in detail. Furthermore, it highlights the advantages and limitations of the authentication schemes and presents a comprehensive comparison of their capabilities and features. Finally, the paper concludes with open issues and future research directions.

This paper outlines the implementation of a secure data authentication model for the wireless body area network using a single private key exchanged during the time of configuration. The need for secure data exchange grows rapidly due the fact that the data exchanged are confined to the details of the ailing patient. Recent researchers have proposed a secure system for WBAN, but there is a huge demand to incorporate the security parameters into it. A system in place must ensure security with the use of limited amount of resources. This paper tries to address these issues of security considering the fact of limited availability of resources like power, bandwidth, thereby helping to achieve, more secure and time-efficient system in place for the effective online health monitoring scheme using WBAN. Also the security system for WBAN is proposed with low computational complexity for the secure transaction using a key utilized cryptographic encryption algorithm.
