Internet of medical things (IoMT) is an emerging technology aiming to improve the patient's quality of life by enabling personalized e-health services without limitations on time and location. Nevertheless, IoMT devices (eg, medical sensors) that constitute the key underlying elements of the IoMT edge network are vulnerable to various types of security threats and thus, they pose a significant risk to patient's privacy and safety. Based on that and the fact that the security is a critical factor for the successful integration of IoMT technology into pervasive healthcare systems, there is an urgent need for novel security mechanisms to preserve the security of the IoMT edge network. Toward this direction, the first step is the comprehensive understanding of existing and potential threats to the IoMT edge network environment. Thus, in this article, we provide a categorization of security threats to the edge network environment based on the major security objectives that they target. Moreover, we present a categorization of security countermeasures, derived from the literature, against threats to IoMT edge networks. The authors' intent is to provide a foundation for organizing research efforts toward the development of proper security countermeasures for protecting IoMT edge networks against internal and external threats.

医疗物联网（IoMT）安全威胁与对策调查

医疗物联网 (IoMT) 是一项新兴技术，旨在通过提供不受时间和地点限制的个性化电子医疗服务来提高患者的生活质量。然而，构成 IoMT 边缘网络关键基础元素的 IoMT 设备（例如，医疗传感器）容易受到各种类型的安全威胁，因此它们对患者的隐私和安全构成重大风险。基于这一点以及安全性是将 IoMT 技术成功集成到普遍的医疗保健系统中的关键因素这一事实，迫切需要新的安全机制来保护 IoMT 边缘网络的安全性。朝着这个方向迈出的第一步是全面了解物联网边缘网络环境的现有和潜在威胁。因此，在本文中，我们根据其针对的主要安全目标对边缘网络环境的安全威胁进行分类。此外，我们从文献中提出了针对 IoMT 边缘网络威胁的安全对策分类。作者的目的是为组织研究工作提供基础，以开发适当的安全对策，以保护 IoMT 边缘网络免受内部和外部威胁。
