摘要：Within the hospital or extended care environment, there is an overwhelming need for constantmonitoring of vital body functions and support for patient mobility. Tomorrow’s biomedical networks will addressthese needs by incorporating new technologies like wireless sensor networks into their in-frastructure. However,wireless transmission of sensitive patient data presents some obvious security concerns. In this paper we discuss theseconcerns and how they are addressed by existing systems. We also discuss issues that need further consideration, suchas run-time composition of security services depending on the criticality of data transmitted along with a solution forpractical sensor systems using TinyOS. Finally, we propose intrusion detection as a future research direction forbiomedical sensor networks and we elaborate on the main components of such a system.
