The wireless body area network (WBAN) allows the data of a patient’s vital body parameters and movements to be collected by wearable or implantable sensors and communicated using short-range wireless communication techniques. WBANs provide unprecedented opportunities to monitor the patient’s health status with real- time updates to the physician. Furthermore, these devices are used to collect life-critical information and may operate in hostile environments, so they require strict security mechanisms to prevent the malicious interaction with the system. In this paper the technique that can be used to monitor patients by the use of body area networks is reviewed. Also, the current secure strategies that can impede the attacks faced by wireless communications in healthcare systems and improve the security of mobile health care are discussed.
