Abstract :
Emerging Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and mobile health scenarios provide opportunities for enhancing traditional healthcare systems. Yet current development meets the challenge of sensing patient´s health data with strong security guarantees in mobile and resource-constrained settings as well as in emergency situations. This paper presents a generic IoT-aware system architecture that enables security of personal mobile data and their transfer to healthcare services. Our security solutions apply the Host Identity Protocol. We validate the efficiency using a prototype implementation.
