Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are worthy to use in ubiquitous healthcare environments. They provide comfort to patients and make patient monitoring systems more efficient. WSN, when applied in ubiquitous healthcare environments, have different characteristics and security requirements. Number of sensors is very small as compared to other WSN applications and all nodes are close to each other in the network. Possibility of human intervention in ubiquitous healthcare environments and randomness properties of biometric measurements, which are collected in ubiquitous healthcare environments, reduce the security requirements as compared to other WSN applications. Key Management Schemes, proposed for generic WSN, prove to be overly complex and inefficient for ubiquitous healthcare environments. In this paper, we present TIMAR, which is an efficient Key Management Scheme specifically designed for ubiquitous healthcare environments. |
