Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) and the Cloud Computing are among the main technologies influencing the quality and efficiency of our social and economic activities. Their importance is quite notable in several areas such as remote medical care and healthcare monitoring systems. These later face difficulties most of them are the expensive costs for the chronic diseases and the hospitals charges specially during the pandemic time. All these issues have led to the creation of new solutions for enhancing the quality of the healthcare systems. In this paper, we focus on the network architecture security including healthcare monitoring systems based on IoT and Cloud Computing. We present a recent review on the research field and we propose a secure solution based on lightweight cryptography in accordance with the limited resource environments within which health data are exchanged. The proposed solution is guaranteeing data confidentiality and ensuring integrity and authenticity.
