ABSTRACT
With the increase in advanced technologies, the health industry has developed a lot recently. Medical cyber-physical system (MCPS) plays a vital role in this. It consists of various medical devices which are networked together for smooth and efficient working. The patient’s EHR is collected and stored on the cloud which is then easily accessible by doctors. The health industry has always been on top of cyber-attacks. With the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, there was a sudden surge in telemedicine adoption, remote working and makeshift sites for virus testing and treatment, and under-preparedness, all contributing to new vulnerabilities and giving cybercriminals a new opportunity. In the medical world, we need our medical systems to be secure, reliable, efficient, and should ensure economic data storage and sharing for both patients and medical institutes. Motivated by these facts, we did a review on various MCPS techniques and algorithms that already existed. In this paper, we tried to summarize those techniques and provide a comparative study for the same. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
