| Summary: | The healthcare system in Malaysia has witness a tremendous change and there are many systems developed to provide a better healthcare system. A remote healthcare system using the Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is still new to public hospitals in Malaysia. The “Feasibility Study of Incorporating Remote Healthcare System Using WBAN from the Security Perspective” is a research to study the security aspects for remote healthcare system in public hospitals in Malaysia. The preliminary study of this research focuses on the security aspects to be considered for developing a remote healthcare system since such system is yet to be used in the country. Medical practitioners from Department of Cardiology from public hospitals are interviewed to know the incorporability of the remote healthcare system using WBAN from the security aspects identified. The security aspects identified are data confidentiality, data integrity, data privacy and data authentication. All these four aspects are identified to be crucial in for a remote healthcare system in Malaysia. |
