Despite the number of security incidents in healthcare sector is considerable, earlier studies have been done in business sector. We have tried to empirically analyze the misuse intention using information system for healthcare sector. As a result, the preventative security software of the information security management have positive impact on the effectiveness of sanctions. Though further analysis is needed, the security policies, security awareness program and monitoring practices are determined to have a valid impact on the effectiveness of sanctions equivalent to the preventative security software.

We propose to design a Holochain-based security and privacy protection system for resource-constrained IoT healthcare systems. Through analysis and performance evaluation, the proposed system confirmed that these characteristics operate effectively in the IoT healthcare environment. The system proposed in this paper consists of four main layers aimed at secure collection, transmission, storage, and processing of important medical data in IoT healthcare environments. The first PERCEPTION layer consists of various IoT devices, such as wearable devices, sensors, and other medical devices. These devices collect patient health data and pass it on to the network layer. The second network connectivity layer assigns an IP address to the collected data and ensures that the data is transmitted reliably over the network. Transmission takes place via standardized protocols, which ensures data reliability and availability. The third distributed cloud layer is a distributed data storage based on Holochain that stores important medical information collected from resource-limited IoT devices. This layer manages data integrity and access control, and allows users to share data securely. Finally, the fourth application layer provides useful information and services to end users, patients and healthcare professionals. The structuring and presentation of data and interaction between applications are managed at this layer. This structure aims to provide security, privacy, and resource efficiency suitable for IoT healthcare systems, in contrast to traditional centralized or blockchain-based systems. We design and propose a Holochain-based security and privacy protection system through a better IoT healthcare system.

Recently as we enter into the world of an aging society, the U-Healthcare service is newly spotlighted. In order to secure this U-Healthcare, a development of security solution that is suitable for the U-Healthcare environment is required. But the U-Healthcare environment is difficult to apply the existing security solution with the lack of standards, a security solution with high completeness was not developed. At this point, in order to structure the safe U-Healthcare environment, a generating method of an encryption key using the body information that helps the effective key management and ensuring the confidentiality of the data is proposed.

The study seeks to widen the discussion from healthcare oriented 'health publicness' to human security oriented 'health publicness'. The shortcomings of previous literatures on health publicness are as follows: (1) the studies have confined the range of discussions to healthcare system, (2) lacked arguments from political perspectives, and (3) failed to provide actionable pathways to achieve the goal. Thereby, we suggest 'health publicness' based on the concept of human security to solve multidimensional healthcare problems. The health publicness based on human security, which aims to secure everybody's freedom from want and fear, enables not only to expand the scope of health problems that can be discussed but also to propose the procedures to achieve health publicness. More specifically, it consists of substantive and procedural health publicness. The former is about 'health security'-protecting, maintaining, and promoting individual's health-whereas, the latter is about 'social dialogue' guaranteeing participation of citizens, government, employers, and worker representatives. In conclusion, this study proposes the 'Regional Healthcare Quadripartite' as the incarnation of health publicness involving a variety of actors within and across the healthcare system.

Recently, the smart healthcare industry that grafted the Internet of Things (IoT) onto the healthcare and medical services is being highlighted. Smart healthcare refers to the healthcare and medical services offered on the basis of information communication technologies including application, wearable devices and platforms, etc. The number of next generation smart healthcare devices are increasing in the smart healthcare industry through the combination of information technology (IT) and Bio Technology (BT), which are the most active areas among the 6T, which are the areas of the next generation industry. With the emergence of a diverse range of smart healthcare systems or devices, whether the smart healthcare system can be linked with other systems organically and the security and quality of the system have become important elements of evaluation. In this Study, the characteristics and service types of smart healthcare systems were examined, and the trends in the technology and industry of the smart healthcare system were analyzed. Moreover, this Study aims to develop the evaluation method for security and standards for quality evaluation by deducing the factors for the evaluation of smart healthcare system on the basis of the results of aforementioned examination. It is anticipated that this can induce improvement of quality and development of highly reliable products of a smart healthcare system, and will become the core technology to substitute the technology protection barrier.

As medical healthcare industry is growing up rapidly these days, providing various new healthcare service is considered carefully. Health information is considered to be more important than financial information; therefore, protecting health information becomes a very significant task. Ransomware is now targeting industry groups that have high information value. Especially, ransomware has grown in various ways since entering maturity in 2017. Healthcare industry is highly vulnerable to ransomeware since most healthcare organizations are configured in closed network with lack of malware protection. Only meeting the security criteria is not the solution. In the case of a successful attack, restoration process must be prepared to minimize damages as soon as possible. Ransomware is growing rapidly and becoming more complex that protection must be improved much faster. Based on ISO 27799 and 27002 standard, we extract and present security measures against advanced ransomware to maintain and manage healthcare system more effectively.

Recently, service based on internet is inter-connected and integrated with a variety of connection. This kind of internet of things consist of heterogenous devices such as sensor node, devices and end-to end equipment which used in conventional protocols and services. The representative system is healthcare system. From healthcare appliance used by IoT, patient and doctor can utilize healthcare information with safety and high speed management. It is very convenient management to operate mobility. But it induced security and vulnerability issues because it has small memory capacity, low power supply and low computing power. This made impossible to implement security algorithm with embedded engine based on hardware. Nowdays, we can't realize conventional standard algorithm due to these kinds of reasons. From the critical issues, it occurred security and vulnerability issues. Therefore, we analysed and compared with conventional method and proposed techniques. Finally, we evaluated security issues and requirement for end-to-end point healthcare system based on internet of things.
