Abstract
Smart home solutions enable access to health-care services to patients by the use of ubiquitous, smart devices or sensors, at the convenience of their home. As in any health-care IT infrastructure, sensitive health information of a patient is processed and transmitted to third parties, increasing the risk of a privacy breach. The smart home environment, due to its pervasive nature, augments such privacy challenges and poses requirements for the devices and software designed. In this chapter, we identify privacy requirements for this environment, and we map requirements to existing solutions. The chapter concludes with identified priorities and challenges for future work.
