الملخص الانجليزي
The sensors of a Wireless Body Area Network
(WBAN) that are spread inside and outside of a human
body collect medical information and transfer it into the
back-end server that is managed by the hospital or medical
center; where the professionals analyze this data. This
server is considered a very critical device because it has
sensitive information. Therefore, the security and privacy of
that server must be defended. Networked storage systems
have become an efficient way to use in WBAN. It can be
divided into two types: Centralized storage systems and
Distributed Storage Systems (DSSs). Storing data at a single
server is simple way but it can lead to a single point of
failure (whether being a normal failure or due to security
attacks). On the other hand, the structure of DSS can
tolerate the openness and failure. In this paper, enhanced
security and privacy DSS system is developed using public
key cryptography to store patient information. The storage
of information is distributed among individual nodes spread
in the network and simultaneously the security
requirements (like confidentiality, reliability,
authentication, and dynamic integrity) are achieved by
utilizing more powerful algorithms. The main phases of
operation of the proposed system are described. Also, the
results of system prototype simulation are discussed at the
end of the paper.
