Summary
This study identifies security flaws in Fan et al.
Area of Science:
- Computer Science
- Healthcare Technology
- Information Security
Background:
- Internet of Things (IoT) integration in healthcare enhances processes.
- Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology supports patient monitoring and asset tracking.
- Security and privacy concerns hinder RFID adoption in healthcare.
Purpose of the Study:
- Analyze the security vulnerabilities of Fan et al.'s 2019 RFID authentication scheme.
- Propose a novel, lightweight RFID authentication scheme to address identified weaknesses.
- Ensure the proposed scheme meets security requirements and offers low implementation cost for healthcare.
Main Methods:
- Security analysis of Fan et al.'s RFID authentication scheme.
- Development of a new lightweight RFID authentication protocol.
- Performance evaluation of the proposed scheme.
Main Results:
- Identified critical security vulnerabilities in Fan et al.'s scheme.
- The proposed scheme demonstrates robust security against common RFID attacks.
- Performance evaluation confirms the low cost and efficiency of the new scheme.
Conclusions:
- Fan et al.'s RFID authentication scheme is not secure for healthcare applications.
- The novel proposed scheme provides a secure and cost-effective solution for RFID-based healthcare systems.
- The new scheme is suitable for practical deployment in healthcare settings.

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

1.8K
Secondary healthcare is offered by a specialist, generally in hospitals or clinics for patients referred by primary healthcare providers. It occurs when a person has an illness or injury that requires specific medical care. Secondary care is often referred to as acute care. Secondary care can range from uncomplicated care to repair a minor laceration or treat a strep throat infection to more complicated emergent care, such as treating a head injury sustained in an automobile accident. Whatever...

The American Nurses Association (ANA) created and implemented the first nationally accepted Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements. The Code of Ethics is a living document regularly updated by the ANA and establishes an ethical standard that is non-negotiable for nurses in all roles and settings.
The Code of Ethics provisions outline the nurse's duty to the patient, the healthcare team, the profession, and society. The Code's fundamental principles include advocacy,...

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.

At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...
