An Anomaly-Based Intrusion Detection System for Internet of Medical Things Networks

Over the past few years, the healthcare sector is being transformed due to the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the introduction of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) technology, whose purpose is the improvement of the patient’s quality of life. Nevertheless, the heterogenous and resource...
