Abstract :
Healthcare has been the oldest and the most prominent industries in the history of humankind. Healthcare industry began with Ayurveda, Homeopathy, and now the Allopathy. Adding strength to these domains, e healthcare and tele medicine industries have started booming with the advent of technology. This has reduced the burden on small hospitals with limited infrastructures. With the growth of IOT and e healthcare came Wireless body Area Network. Wireless Body area network with it brought implantable sensors, surface mounted sensors and held sensors. This has revolutionized the health care industry and made the lives of elderly and wheel chair bound individuals lives less cumbersome. Though in its youth stage, this technology still has many issues. One such issue is the security of the patient data being stored and transmitted. Here through this survey, we present various security issues with the Wireless Body Area Network. We also present the various kinds of sensors being used along with WBAN.
