in asia •  7 years ago 

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Network Business Weekly -- Research findings on Networks - Security and Communication Networks are discussed in a new report. According to news reporting out of Changsha, People’s Republic of China, by VerticalNews editors, research stated, “Medical Internet of Things, also well known as MIoT, is playing a more and more important role in improving the health, safety, and care of billions of people after its showing up. Instead of going to the hospital for help, patients’ health-related parameters can be monitored remotely, continuously, and in real time, then processed, and transferred to medical data center, such as cloud storage, which greatly increases the efficiency, convenience, and cost performance of healthcare.”

Funders for this research include National Natural Science Foundation of China, CETC.

Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the National University of Defence Science and Technology, “The amount of data handled by MIoT devices grows exponentially, which means higher exposure of sensitive data. The security and privacy of the data collected from MIoT devices, either during their transmission to a cloud or while stored in a cloud, are major unsolved concerns. This paper focuses on the security and privacy requirements related to data flow in MIoT.”

According to the news editors, the research concluded: “In addition, we make in-depth study on the existing solutions to security and privacy issues, together with the open challenges and research issues for future work.”
