Topics for: Secure IoT Data Exchange and Cloud Computing for Healthcare Systems

Discuss the strict need for Secure Data Exchange when moving patient information between the device, the hospital, and the Cloud. This covers the basic security techniques (like encryption—scrambling the data so only the right people can read it) and the laws that ensure only authorized doctors and systems can access or change patient records.

Focus on the role of Cloud Computing as the massive, central hub where all the IoT health data is stored and processed. Discuss why the cloud is necessary for powerful analysis (finding trends in a patient's health) and the critical need for the Cloud to have extremely strong security measures to protect private medical records from hackers.

Discuss how Internet of Things (IoT) devices (like smartwatches, glucose monitors, and hospital sensors) collect a huge amount of personal health data. This includes the benefits of real-time monitoring and the basic challenge of moving all that sensitive data from the small device to a central system for doctors to review.
