WBANs (Wireless Body Area Networks) are frequently depicted as a paradigm shift in healthcare from traditional to modern E-Healthcare. The vitals of the patient signs by the sensors are highly sensitive, secret, and vulnerable to numerous adversarial attacks. Since WBANs is a real-world application of the healthcare system, it’s vital to ensure that the data acquired by the WBANs sensors is secure and not accessible to unauthorized parties or security hazards. As a result, effective signcryption security solutions are required for the WBANs’ success and widespread use. Over the last two decades, researchers have proposed a slew of signcryption security solutions to achieve this goal. The lack of a clear and unified study in terms of signcryption solutions can offer a bird’s eye view of WBANs. Based on the most recent signcryption papers, we analyzed WBAN’s communication architecture, security requirements, and the primary problems in WBANs to meet the aforementioned objectives. This survey also includes the most up to date signcryption security techniques in WBANs environments. By identifying and comparing all available signcryption techniques in the WBANs sector, the study will aid the academic community in understanding security problems and causes. The goal of this survey is to provide a comparative review of the existing signcryption security solutions and to analyze the previously indicated solution given for WBANs. A multi-criteria decision-making approach is used for a comparative examination of the existing signcryption solutions. Furthermore, the survey also highlights some of the public research issues that researchers must face to develop the security features of WBANs.

In recent years, developments in information technology and emerging technologies have greatly benefited e-health. The adoption of Wireless Body Area Networks is a perfect example (WBAN). The WBAN is a popular device. Medical care can be delivered remotely to patients in their own homes via tele-homecare (also known as tele-diagnosis). Diabetes, dementia, falls, congestive heart failure, asthma, and infertility are among the conditions for which they are prescribed. An emergency response time could be sped up by using WBANs to monitor patients' health in real time. From a more traditional strategy to a more updated patient-centered one has been seen in recent years. Telemedicine and telemonitoring are two examples of current patient-centered practises that use technology to make it easier for patients to provide personal information. Telemonitoring has been discovered as a feasible research subject using the most up-to-date methods of turning raw data into meaningful information. WBAN stability is dependent on preventing node overheating and conserving energy. LB-EESAA routing mechanism for WBANs and the early warning system for attacks during Blockchain transactions are discussed in this study. Results show that LB-EESAA performs best in terms of both the number of live and dead nodes and the length of protocol stability. We were able to raise the level of security of the organisation after increasing the efficiency of WBANs. We examined the read throughput and basic transaction throughput of a blockchain-enabled system. After assuring and safeguarding the privacy of the system, we used the Logi-XGB prediction model machine learning to forecast assaults. Using the Logi-XGB model, 95.7 percent of the assault could be predicted in its early stages.

“…The patient health data observed by the sensor nodes must be secure, has limited access, and should not mix with other patient data during collection as well as transmission. Moreover, an efficient security model for resource-constrained WBANs should be accurate, costeffective, real-time responsive, scalable, transparent, and less complex since BANs deals with sensitive and significant health data [45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52].…”

“…The suggested scheme is also robust against active as well as passive attacks. Nidhya et al [46] discussed a survey related to security as well as privacy issues of sensed heterogeneous (critical) sensed data in remote healthcare systems using WBANs. The author states that critical health data plays a vital role in accurate decision-making that should be accessed by certified medical professionals for any action required for better treatment.…”

ETAS: An Efficient Trust Assessment Scheme for BANs

et al. 2021

A wireless body area network (WBAN) is a wireless network of wearable computing devices and intelligent physiological sensors. The intelligent physiological sensors collect and process sensitive data from the patient body. The security, reliability, and trustworthiness of sensitive data collected and processed by intelligent physiological sensors are critical due to its unique application domain. Moreover, consistent and reliable data gathering along with its transmission also plays a vital role in WBANs. Trust management (in BANs) has been found as a useful tool to improve cooperation among sensor nodes, security as well as reliability. The paper recommends a novel and efficient, lightweight trust assessment scheme (ETAS) suitable for health application domains and does not rely purely on any encryption technique. The primary purpose is to develop an exciting comprehensive, novel trust estimation framework for BANs to enhance reliability, dependability, security by isolating compromised (hotspot) nodes with great resource efficiency. ETAS incorporates several exclusive (unique) features like efficient trust evaluator, secure and attack resistant, along with competent trust aggregator function to achieve comprehensive trust score. The trust evaluator function is a multi-trust (communication trust, data trust, and energy trust) strategy to deal with severe internal security threats such as badmouthing attack, ballot-stuffing attack, sybil attack, traitor attack, etc. with less resource consumption. Moreover, ETAS incorporates both the success rate and misbehavior component during trust evaluation. The success rate record the number of successful/unsuccessful interactions among sensor nodes in terms of packet send/receive. The misbehavior component keeps records of current and past misbehavior of sensor nodes for effective decision making. Moreover, ETAS focus on the frequency of interaction among biomedical sensor nodes within a specified period to analyze their behavior for efficient trust decisions. Furthermore, ETAS incorporates temperature, data trust as well as the trust score of biomedical sensors to identify hotspot nodes in BSN. ETAS offers full flexibility to adjust the trust threshold, trust domain, reward, and punishment term according to system and application requirements. ETAS's efficiency is validated through several outcomes (MATLAB R2019a) along with theoretical analysis in terms of energy consumption, attack detection, mitigation, trust computation cost, and packet delivery ratio.
