Abstract Medical Internet of Things (M-IoT) synchronizes medical devices in a network to provide smart healthcare monitoring to doctors and to provide an interactive model for patients. This embedded networked system gained lots of importance in the last few years. Now almost every hospital adopts M-IoT. Though it had a lot of challenges in the initial stages of implementation such as feasibility, accuracy, and autonomy, now it has bridged the flaws with the help of several researchers in this field. But still, M-IoT lags behind in security and privacy aspects due to which attackers can intrude on the network and exploit patients’ health data. By examining the various intensive security threats imposed on M-IoT a unique way of handling and transferring data over the network is proposed in this paper. From our research findings, this would resolve the data security issues in M-IoT and commence the next advancements.
