Study Notes

BMT 342: Security and Privacy in IoT/IoMT - Lecture 7

  • Objectives: To understand cyberattack types on IoT/IoMT devices, key security measures, and the consequences of cyberattacks on IoMT systems.

Introduction

  • Protecting data mined by IoT/IoMT devices and sensitive data is challenging.
  • IoT/IoMT devices require robust security and privacy measures to prevent cyberattacks and data breaches, ensuring ethical data collection and use.

Attack Types

  • Replay Attacks: Attackers interrupt and capture wireless data to gain unauthorized access.
  • Man-in-the-Middle Attacks: Attackers intercept and modify data transmission between IoT devices, potentially leading to dangerous outcomes like medication errors.
  • Rogue Access Points: Attackers create fake access points to intercept traffic and gain access to sensitive data.
  • Denial-of-Service (DoS) Attacks: Attackers overload systems with requests, disrupting their availability and responsiveness.
  • Malware Attacks: Attackers inject malicious software into devices and systems to exploit vulnerabilities and cause damage (e.g., spyware, worms, trojans, viruses, ransomware).
  • Tampering Devices: Attackers physically tamper with sensors to impair their functionality.

Security and Privacy Measures

  • Authentication and Access Control: Implement robust authentication methods (passwords, two-factor authentication, biometrics) to verify user and device identities.
  • Encrypting Data: Encrypt data stored and transmitted between IoT devices to prevent unauthorized access.

Security and Privacy Measures (Continued)

  • Regularly Patching and Updating: Regularly update IoT devices' software to address known vulnerabilities.
  • Enhance Network Security: Protect IoT networks with measures like firewalls and secure protocols (e.g., TLS).

Security and Privacy Measures (Continued)

  • Adhering to Regulatory Standards: Comply with regulations like GDPR and HIPAA to ensure legal data privacy and security.
  • Security Incident Response Plan: Develop a plan to handle security breaches or incidents, including detection, control, and recovery procedures.

Consequences of Cyberattacks on IoMT Systems

  • Cyberattacks on IoMT systems can have serious consequences, negatively impacting patient outcomes and increasing mortality rates.
  • Consequences include poor patient outcomes due to delays in tests and procedures, increased patient transfers, increased medical complications, longer hospital stays, and increased mortality rate.
