A healthcare information system allows patients and other users to remotely login to medical services to access health data through the Internet. To protect the privacy of patients and security over the public network, secure communication is required. Therefore, the security of data in transmission has been attracting increasing attention. In recent years, blockchain technology has also attracted more attention. Relevant research has been published at a high rate. Most methods of satisfying relevant security-related regulations use modular and exponential calculation. This study proposes a medical care information preservation mechanism that considers the entire process of data storage in devices from wearable devices to mobile devices to medical center servers. The entire process is protected and complies with HIPAA privacy and security regulations. The proposed scheme uses extended chaotic map technology to develop ID-based key negotiation for wearable devices, and thereby reduces the amount of computing that must be carried out by wearable devices and achieve lightness quantify. It also uses the non-tamperability of the blockchain to ensure that the data have not been tampered with, improving data security. The proposed mechanism can resist a variety of attacks and is computationally lighter than the elliptic curve point multiplication that has been used elsewhere, while retaining its security characteristics.

Human health information from healthcare system can provide important diagnosis data and reference to doctors. However, continuous monitoring and security storage of human health data are challenging personal privacy and big data storage. To build secure and efficient healthcare application, Hadoop-based healthcare security communication system is proposed. In wireless biosensor network, authentication and key transfer should be lightweight. An ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) based lightweight digital signature and key transmission method are proposed to provide wireless secure communication in healthcare information system. Sunspot wireless sensor nodes are used to build healthcare secure communication network; wireless nodes and base station are assigned different tasks to achieve secure communication goal in healthcare information system. Mysql database is used to store Sunspot security entity table and measure entity table. Hadoop is used to backup and audit the Sunspot security entity table. Sqoop tool is used to import/export data between Mysql database and HDFS (Hadoop distributed file system). Ganglia is used to monitor and measure the performance of Hadoop cluster. Simulation results show that the Hadoop-based healthcare architecture and wireless security communication method are highly effective to build a wireless healthcare information system.

Dynamic degradation occurs when chaotic systems are implemented on digital devices, which seriously threatens the security of chaos-based pseudorandom sequence generators. The chaotic degradation shows complex periodic behavior, which is often ignored by designers and seldom analyzed in theory. Not knowing the exact period of the output sequence is the key problem that affects the application of chaos-based pseudorandom sequence generators. In this paper, two cubic chaotic maps are combined, which have symmetry and reconfigurable form in the digital circuit. The dynamic behavior of the cubic chaotic map and the corresponding digital cubic chaotic map are analyzed respectively, and the reasons for the complex period and weak randomness of output sequences are studied. On this basis, the digital cubic chaotic map is optimized, and the complex periodic behavior is improved. In addition, a reconfigurable pseudorandom sequence generator based on the digital cubic chaotic map is constructed from the point of saving consumption of logical resources. Through theoretical and numerical analysis, the pseudorandom sequence generator solves the complex period and weak randomness of the cubic chaotic map after digitization and makes the output sequence have better performance and less resource consumption, which lays the foundation for applying it to the field of secure communication.

Renewable energy-based local microgrids are gaining popularity despite the unavailability of low-cost, power efficient, and secure communication system for its supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. This research has been carried out to address this issue along with the additional features such as data uploading to a server through a gateway, local data logging, and alerting the concerned crew in case of any fault to minimize the outage time. This paper presents the design of a communication system for the SCADA system of microgrid. ESP32 with LoRa has been used for communication between two nodes or a node and central SCADA unit. Communication security has been achieved by implementing AES cryptography. Data authenticity has been achieved by introducing a unique message authentication code (MAC) for each message. A mesh-like network has been implemented to improve the LoRa range. ESP32 and dragino-uno based LoRa gateways have been tried for uploading the data to the server, and local data storage has been achieved using an SD card. The main controller working as the SCADA unit has the feature of sending emails. Detailed system design and test results are presented in this paper.

Asymmetric Encryption

Image encryption has proven a successful method to communicate the confidential information. Some of the images may or may not be confidential. So there is a need to secure the confidential images. Initially, symmetric encryption is used for security purpose. But it has the problem that if the key is revealed the interceptors can immediately decode it. To make the key transformation more secure, asymmetric encryption is introduced. In this two different keys are used for encoding and decoding. So even the interceptors hacked the key it cannot be possible to decode. In this project Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is utilized for generating the keys and the cross chaotic map used for generating the chaotic sequence. These chaotic sequences are utilized to encode the image for secure communication.

In present seismic exploration wireless sensor systems with large acquisition channels, it is difficult to achieve a high data rate, high reliability and long distance in wireless data transmission simultaneously. In this paper, a wireless seismic exploration system using a dual-layer network is proposed. The dual-layer network is designed based on Wi-Fi and LTE, so that long-distance high-rate seismic data transmission with a high reliability can be achieved. In the proposed system, the sensor array is composed of two kinds of nodes, the gateway node and the collecting node. Based on the proposed nodes, collecting node positioning, seismic data acquisition, seismic local data storage and quasi real-time remote seismic data transmission can be realized. Reliability mechanisms have been put forward to deal with the exceptions. An experiment was carried out to test the data transmission efficiency of the proposed system. The results show that the seismic exploration wireless sensor system with a dual-layer network structure can achieve quasi real-time remote seismic data transmission with no packet loss.

Different Chaotic Systems

Using different chaotic systems in secure communication, nonlinear control, and many other applications has revealed that these systems have several drawbacks in different aspects. This can cause unfavorable effects to chaos-based applications. Therefore, presenting a chaotic map with complex behaviors is considered important. In this paper, we introduce a new 2D chaotic map, namely, the 2D infinite-collapse-Sine model (2D-ICSM). Various metrics including Lyapunov exponents and bifurcation diagrams are used to demonstrate the complex dynamics and robust hyperchaotic behavior of the 2D-ICSM. Furthermore, the cross-correlation coefficient, phase space diagram, and Sample Entropy algorithm prove that the 2D-ICSM has a high sensitivity to initial values and parameters, extreme complexity performance, and a much larger hyperchaotic range than existing maps. To empirically verify the efficiency and simplicity of the 2D-ICSM in practical applications, we propose a symmetric secure communication system using the 2D-ICSM. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the validity of the proposed system.

Chebyshev Chaotic Map

AbstractThe outbreak of coronavirus has caused widespread global havoc, and the implementation of lockdown to contain the spread of the virus has caused increased levels of online healthcare services. Upgraded network technology gives birth to a new interface “telecare medicine information systems” in short TMIS. In this system, a user from a remote area and a server located at the hospital can establish a connection to share the necessary information between them. But, it is very clear that all the information is always being transmitted over a public channel. Chaotic map possesses a dynamic structure and it plays a very important role in the construction of a secure and efficient authentication protocols, but they are generally found vulnerable to identity-guess, password-guess, impersonation, and stolen smart-card. We have analyzed (Li et al. in Fut Gen Comput Syst 840:149–159, 2018; Madhusudhan and Nayak Chaitanya in A robust authentication scheme for telecare medical information systems, 2008; Zhang et al in Privacy protection for telecare medicine information systems using a chaotic map-based three-factor authenticated key agreement scheme, 2017; Dharminder and Gupta in Pratik security analysis and application of Chebyshev Chaotic map in the authentication protocols, 2019) and found that Bergamo’s attack (IEEE Trans Circ Syst 52(7):1382–1393, 2005) cannot be resisted by the protocol. Although few of the protocols ensures efficient computations but they cannot ensure an anonymous and secure communication. Therefore, we have proposed a secure and efficient chaotic map based authentication protocol that can be used in telecare medicine information system. This protocol supports verified session keys with only two messages of exchange. Moreover, we have analysed the performance of proposed protocol with relevant protocols and it is being implemented in “Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications” respectively.
