A Hyperledger fabric-based blockchain architecture to secure IoT-based health monitoring systems
Although blockchain is a promising technology that can bring significant benefits into current centralized IoTbased health monitoring systems in order to address security challenges, the resource-constrained IoT devices of these systems cannot afford complex and heavyweight operations due to their limited processing power, storage capacity, and battery life. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a Hyperledger Fabric-based blockchain architecture to: i) enhance security in IoT-based health monitoring systems, ii) achieve better storage handling due to the limited storage capacity of sensors and gateways, iii) facilitate decentralized accountability, and iv) eliminate single point of failure

A scalable approach of practical Byzantine fault tolerance algorithms for IoMT blockchains
Blockchain-based solutions for Internet of Things (IoT) networks constitutes a current trend in cybersecurity and brings significant benefits into current centralized IoT-based health monitoring systems by addressing security challenges. Complex and power intense blockchain solutions do not perform satisfactory in the resource-constrained IoT, and especially Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), devices of these systems due to the latter's limited processing power, storage capacity, and battery life. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a scalable Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT) consensus algorithm for IoMT blockchains to: i) enhance scalability in IoMT blockchains, ii) reduce communication overhead, iii) enhance security while reducing the computational cost for suitability to the resource constraint nature of IoMT devices, iv) facilitate decentralized accountability, and v) eliminate single point of failure
