摘要:

医疗体域网(MBAN)是位于人体内部、表面上或周围的协作的、潜在异构的医疗设备的集合,其目的是解决MBAN主机的一个或多个医疗状况。这些设备是无线体域网(WBAN)的一个特殊类别,它们在网络外部收集、处理和传输医疗数据,在某些情况下,它们还可以自主管理医疗。由于通信对于它们的操作是如此关键,因此新的IEEE 802.15.6标准针对WBAN的通信方面。它设置了一组物理和通信约束,同时还包括WBAN应用程序需要遵守的关联/解除关联协议和安全服务。然而,当考虑实际的MBAN用例时,该标准提出的安全规范很容易被证明是不够的,需要进一步增强。目前的工作解决了这些缺点,首先,提供了一个结构化的分析IEEE 802.15.6的安全功能,然后,提出全面和切实的建议,提高标准的安全性。

英文摘要:

A Medical Body Area Network (MBAN) is an ensemble of collaborating, potentially heterogeneous, medical devices located inside, on the surface of or around the human body with the objective of tackling one or multiple medical conditions of the MBAN host. These devices -- which are a special category of Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) -- collect, process and transfer medical data outside of the network, while in some cases they also administer medical treatment autonomously. Since communication is so pivotal to their operation, the newfangled IEEE 802.15.6 standard is aimed at the communication aspects of WBANs. It places a set of physical and communication constraints while it also includes association/disassociation protocols and security services that WBAN applications need to comply with. However, the security specifications put forward by the standard can be easily shown to be insufficient when considering realistic MBAN use cases and need further enhancements. The present work addresses these shortcomings by, first, providing a structured analysis of the IEEE 802.15.6 security features and, afterwards, proposing comprehensive and tangible recommendations on improving the standard's security.
