Security of Cloud-Based Medical Internet of Things (MIoTs)

Abstract

In this digital era expectations for medical quality have increased. As the number of patients continues to increase, conventional health care methods are having to deal with new complications. In light of these observations, researchers suggested a hybrid combination of conventional health care methods with IoT technology and develop MIoT. The goal of IoMT is to ensure that patients can respond more effectively and efficiently to their treatment. But preserving user privacy is a critical issue when it comes to collecting and handling highly sensitive personal health data. However, IoMTs have limited processing power; hence, they can only implement minimal security techniques. Consequently, throughout the health data transfer through MIoT, patient’s data is at risk of data leakage. This manuscript per the authors emphasizes the need of implementing suitable security measures to increase the IoMT's resilience to cyberattacks. Additionally, this manuscript per the authors discusses the main security and privacy issues associated with IoMT and provide an overview of existing techniques.

Transfer Learning-Based Multi-Scale Denoising Convolutional Neural Network for Prostate Cancer Detection

“…It is understood that there is room for improvement in our research work. We suggest future research directions with the ideas of (i) investigating the effectiveness of the heterogeneous datasets of different disciplines to enhance the knowledge transfer between source and target models [ 40 , 41 ]; (ii) investigating the extent of smoothing, downsampling, and fine-graining of the multi-scale scheme on the performance of the model; (iii) generating additional training data using the variants of generative adversarial networks [ 42 , 43 ] because downsampling sacrifices the available ground truth data [ 44 ]; (iv) generating other types of noise such as speckle noise and random noise in the images to study the robustness of the model [ 45 , 46 ]; and (v) evaluating more noise injection approaches such as rotation, cropping, and re-sizing.…”
