Abstract

The health industry as one of the Critical Infrastructures has rapidly grown in adopting the use of new ubiquitous technologies in advancing its critical services. The industry because of its high need and usage of new technologies is encountering a myriad of challenges including cyber-attacks. Among the technologies adopted by the health industry is the use of cloud computing services for managing Electronic Medical Records (EMR) on the cloud environment. Today’s medical devices use sensors that collect data from the diverse environments such as the human heart and such data is sent to the cloud for better analysis, monitoring, or management. However, attackers exploit every single development to advance health or medical services like all the other cyber systems. The scope of this paper is to investigate how cloud computing services adopted in Health Cyber Physical Systems can be secured from the prevalent cybersecurity challenges. The study followed a systematic literature review, where data was collected from online databases with set search constraints such as language, date of publication and specific keywords. This paper presents how cloud computing integrated with the medical cyber physical systems can impeccably securely manage the health systems. More specifically the collection, monitoring, and management of real-time data and as a result of this integration, different cyber-attacks are escalating.
