| Resumen |
Currently there are different applications that allow to maintain secure communications within medical applications. In this kind of applications, heterogeneous devices interact with each other within a body area network to transmit private patient information. This paper presents the design of five phases of a cryptographic protocol that focus on confidentiality and authentication. The design of such phases can be an option to use in medical applications that consider the use of heterogeneous devices. Proposed protocol uses a key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) scheme and a key derivation function (KDF) to obtain a symmetric key. Both of them together with the digital signature and encryption schemes are used to achieve security services aforementioned. |
