Abstract

Healthcare applications are increasingly being used due to the safety and convenience brought to patients' life and healthcare professionals, respectively. Nevertheless, the use of weak authentication techniques and vulnerable communication protocols makes these applications threatened by specific classes of security attacks and e-crimes. The latter threaten the privacy, the safety and even the life of the persons using these applications, due to the fact that they handle sensitive information and implement complex and critical features. This chapter focuses on postmortem investigation of crimes on healthcare applications. After classifying crimes targeting healthcare applications, the requirements for the design of appropriate postmortem investigation system, are discussed. A literature review of proposals related to the investigation of crimes in healthcare applications together with a discussion of the advanced issues are also provided in this chapter.
