A Three-Tier Approach for Lightweight Data Security of Body Area Networks in E-Health Applications

Wireless body area networks (WBANs) can enable e-health applications under Internet of Things (IoT) scenarios. However, to use WBAN technologies in practical applications, sensitive data collected by wireless sensors must be protected when transmitted across a network and until accessed by authorize...
