IoT-RRHM: Provably secure IoT-based real-time remote healthcare monitoring framework

We have designed an IoT-based real-time remote healthcare monitoring (IoT-RRHM) framework to monitor the healthcare conditions of a patient who lives in a remote location. While monitoring the health conditions of a patient remotely via the Internet, the privacy and security of the patient data may be breached through eavesdropping, masquerading, fabrication, and replaying. The proposed IoT-RRHM framework provides health data security and privacy using elliptic curve cryptography and collision-resistant one-way hash function. It also ensures low execution costs compared to state-of-the-art schemes. The proposed IoT-RRHM framework is provably secure in the random oracle model. The AVISPA simulation results, confirm that the proposed IoT-RRHM framework can withstand the known passive and active attacks. The proposed IoT-RRHM is simulated in an IoT environment that used LM35 and MAX30100 sensor devices, Amica ESP 8266 NodeMCU micro -controller device, Raspberry Pi3, and ACS ACR38U-I1 38U contact smartcard reader/writer device for real-time implementation. This implementation shows that the proposed IoT-RRHM framework is feasible in an IoT-based healthcare environment.
