Security concerns in Telecare and Telemedicine

Vaibhav Garg, Purdue University

Abstract

Telecare and Telemedicine services are a technology-based replacement for in-home care services provided primarily to the elderly and consumers recovering from certain ailments. While these services are mostly successful in the pilot stages they tend to fail in real life settings. One major reason for this failure may be attributed to security issues associated with these services. This research attempts to identify the various Telecare/Telemedicine-related areas whose security issues need to be addressed. The research looks at the work conducted in the field and the issues still to be addressed.
