“…An eHealthcare system with blockchain with Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN) was introduced by Wang et al (14) . Similarly, a patient-centric framework for exchanging health information was proposed by the authors in (15) , while the authors in (16,17) recommended the use of blockchain based methodology to secure the system and establish privacy. An ehealth system was introduced in (18) that used an electronic medical storage record that could save patients' information using a tree-based blockchain algorithm.…”

Objectives: Blockchain technology can improve the security and privacy of Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) systems in healthcare. The primary goal of this research is to address the privacy and security concerns in technologyloaded devices and gadgets by proposing a novel approach that integrates blockchain and advanced cryptographic techniques with WBAN. Methods: Simulated physiological data collected from multiple body sensors in a WBAN environment, along with network traffic data, were gathered. A modified algorithm is developed for signature encryption in WBAN systems using a hyperelliptic curve secure channel. This approach incorporates blockchain technology to strengthen security and privacy measures for efficient and safe data transfer and storage. To achieve this, a hyperelliptic curve-based technique is used along with an authenticated certificate-less signature key encryption model, which helps overcome various attacks, such as man-in-themiddle attacks, basic impersonation attacks, and key offset attacks. Findings: The proposed methodology is compared to traditional approaches to assess its effectiveness. This methodology is evaluated using parameters such as Hardware Security Model (HSM) operations and time taken, which demonstrate its superiority. It is observed that the proposed methodology records 3 hsm operations within 2.03 ms with Signcryption and 3 hsm within 2.35 ms with Unsigncryption, proving to be better than other traditional approaches. Novelty: The integrity, security, and privacy features of blockchain, make it difficult for malicious actors to crack or hack the system. The security measures are further enhanced by using a hyperelliptic curve-based technique and an authenticated certificate-less signature key encryption model. This approach also addresses multiple attacks providing a comprehensive solution for secure data transmission.

“…In HCM, for checking the useful parameters exactly, the Sensor Nodes (SN) are located above the human bodies' surface or implanted into the human body tissues [4]. Sensing a patient's significant signs, processing, along with communicating data are the three important tasks presented by the sensors in WBANs [5]. The human body's essential physiological parameters like blood pressure, ECG, and pulse are gathered by SN [6].…”

<p>A wireless network composed of wearable sensing along with computing systems connected via a wireless communication channel is termed Wireless Body Sensor Network (WBSN). It enables continuous monitoring through sensors for medical and nonmedical applications. WBSN faces several security problems such as loss of information, access control, and authentication. As WBSN collects vital information and operates in an unfriendly environment, severe security mechanisms are needed in order to prevent the network from anonymous interactions. The different security threats are evaluated with the support of the data transmitted via the sensor networks amongst smart wearable devices. The whole network lifetime together with the Data Transmission (DT) quality is mitigated whilst performing DT utilizing sensor networks, which consume more energy. Hence, in this paper, an energy-efficient secure data transmission mechanism is proposed in WBSN using a novel authentication id-based group signature model and SECC technique. At first, the Group Manager (GM) is selected from the sensors in the remote body sensor system using Normalized Opposition Based Learning BAT Optimization Algorithm (NOBL-BOA). Afterward, clustering with Information Entropy induced K-Means Algorithm (IEKMA) takes place to improve energy efficiency. Next, to provide security to the WBSN, message authentication is carried out based on novel authentication ID-based group signature protocol. Finally, Secret key induced Elliptic Curve Cryptography (SECC) is used to encrypt the message for secure transmission. The simulation results reveal that in comparison with existing works, the proposed work achieves improved security and energy efficiency.</p> <p> </p>

Wireless Sensor Networks are often to perform autonomous sensing and controlling the real world objects through the sensor nodes across the globe. Since these sensor nodes are operated by the energy of the battery that has been performed a vital role in deploying a sensor network. Hence, the battery power needs to be minimized to prolong network lifetime for healthcare applications. The monitored data transmission is very important to process in building wireless sensor networks. In order to provide efficient data transmission wireless technology standards are followed as IEEE 802.15.4 standards that provide desirable communication between end to end with optimal routes using the proposed Energy Optimization Algorithm. The proposed algorithm has been improved the data packet transmission efficiency up to 25% and also helps to prolong the life time of Wireless Sensor Networks in order to achieve the efficient data transmission for health care monitoring.
