Abstract

Medical Internet of Things (MIoT) involves the use of connected devices and sensors. These devices can include wearable health monitors, smart medical devices, implantable sensors, and remote monitoring systems. These devices can collect a wide range of data, including vital signs, medication adherence, and activity levels, which can be used to diagnose and treat medical conditions remotely and make informed decisions based on real-time information. With the increasing use of medical Internet of Things (MIoT) devices, such as wearable health monitors and implantable medical devices, digital forensics has become a critical component of healthcare security. Digital forensics for medical IoT involves the use of specialized tools and techniques to investigate any suspected security breaches or incidents involving these devices. The main goal of this paper is to provide a reliable blockchain-based digital forensic framework in MIoT.
