“…Other applications may have a commercial need to secure data in transit, but the impact of security vulnerabilities of healthcare information systems are high [14], [15] and so they need to demonstrate compliance to best practice, security and privacy of data guidelines [16]. The following factors must be addressed during the initial design and throughout the life of the system [17]:  Confidentialitydata is accessible only to those who have the right to know.…”

AAL has benefitted tremendously from the near-ubiquity of powerful smartphones and very high data rates available over broadband and mobile networks. However, this is beyond the reach of many users. IoT systems offer the potential to extend some of the benefits to disadvantaged users. Such solutions will need to secure personal health information and provide a sufficient quality of service even when operating constrained user devices and communications.

“…Andrew Jones et al [4] IoT devices make use of cloud services (Database-as-a-service approach as NoSQL Mongo tool and Storage-as-a-Service )using IPv6 and Wi-Fi for storing large amount of sensor data and therefore user sensitive information are more risk in hands of cyber-attacks. The attacker can easily spread malicious activities, systems malfunction, power failures and security threats while using IoT devices.…”

Digital world connected millions of people through internet for our day today activities, and therefore security, privacy, authentication issues is a key question today. The main objective of this paper is to study various issues in enabling technologies such as Cyber Physical System (CPS), Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data Analytics (BDA) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). IoT is a network of devices which link, interact and transfer data but security and privacy should concern while moving from traditional to modern world. CPS is a combination of data processing, networking and physical activities, through critical infrastructure attacker access computer devices and damages the system. Big data shared high volume, velocity, variety, context and content data to distributed system and key issue is data lost by harm. Artificial Intelligence can perform job as like human brain and solve real world problem but optical network can be easily attacked by hackers. This paper investigate different threats, limitation and future work in the cyber physical system, IoT etc and various methods are discussed from various articles and it is more helpful in doing further research work in this area and cyber security is the most important tool which can be implement to protect the cyberspace from the inside and outside attacker.

“…Despite the many notable benefits of the healthcare applications discussed, many issues and challenges are also present, especially regarding the security and privacy of often sensitive gathered medical data and interference with other medical devices. These issues are often made more challenging by the diversity of IoT components (Abouzakhar, Jones, & Angelopouloui, ). In particular, IoT based healthcare applications rely on interconnected devices exchanging potentially sensitive information (Abouzakhar et al, ) and, as such, are prone to a range of different security and privacy attacks (Al‐mawee, ).…”

“…These issues are often made more challenging by the diversity of IoT components (Abouzakhar, Jones, & Angelopouloui, ). In particular, IoT based healthcare applications rely on interconnected devices exchanging potentially sensitive information (Abouzakhar et al, ) and, as such, are prone to a range of different security and privacy attacks (Al‐mawee, ). Multiple questions have been raised regarding gathered personal medical data, specifically about ownership of the data, who has access rights to it and where it is stored, questions that must be answered to ensure the integrity of the data and the privacy of the individual it belongs to.…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the result of the convergence of sensing, computing, and networking technologies, allowing devices of varying sizes and computational capabilities (things) to intercommunicate. This communication can be achieved locally enabling what is known as edge and fog computing, or through the well‐established Internet infrastructure, exploiting the computational resources in the cloud. The IoT paradigm enables a new breed of applications in various areas including health care, energy management and smart cities. This paper starts off with reviewing these applications and their potential benefits. Challenges facing the realization of such applications are then discussed. The sheer amount of data stemmed from devices forming the IoT requires new data mining systems and techniques that are discussed and categorized later in this paper. Finally, the paper is concluded with future research directions. This article is categorized under: Fundamental Concepts of Data and Knowledge > Big Data Mining Application Areas > Health Care Application Areas > Industry Specific Applications
