Home healthcare has been developed to address personal healthcare issues and to make use of advances in IT technology. Home healthcare users can check their physical information by means of many healthcare sensors and simultaneously receive remote treatment. Hence, when the functions of home healthcare are broadened, it will be possible for a patient and a medical team to access medical information or treatment using wireless communication. However, this broadening of home healthcare will reveal vulnerabilities that cannot now be predicted. Therefore, in this paper, we analysis the vulnerabilities of home healthcare wireless services, and introduce wireless security devices that will defend against these vulnerabilities.
