Abstract


Smart applications and monitoring systems across health systems are provided by the Internet of Things (IoTs), which connects devices and networks, and potentially deliver new technologies in this field. In order to establish an IoT-based healthcare system that protects patients' sensitive and personal information, it is imperative that security be ensured. It was our goal to identify the elements and ideas connected with the security needs of the Internet of Things in the healthcare sector. In the healthcare industry, a survey was done on the security needs of IoTs devices. Data from Web of Science, IEEE, Scopus, and PubMed has been searched since 2005. In addition, we adhered to international norms and recognized rules for cyberspace security. This paper presents an an analysis of the aspects and ideas relevant to the security needs of IoTs in a medical environment. Our research revealed two major categories of security needs: cyber resilience and cyber security. In the cyber security category, there are CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability) Triad and the non-CIA subcategories. Information security (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability represented the CIA triad), performability, survivability, maintainability, safety, and reliability were listed as the primary elements for cyber resilience needs. The trustworthiness of Healthcare Internet of Things (HIoTs) relies on balancing traditional (cyber security) and unique (cyber resilience) needs.
