ARM partners with HeartToHeart to secure wearable healthcare applications
This new remote health management (RHM) solution uses mobile devices enabled with a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) based on ARM TrustZone technology combined with HeartToHeart’s Structured Intelligence care management platform.
RHM solutions are only successful if the patient data is both trusted and accurate. To address those requirements, ARM technology is used at both the software and hardware level while incorporating the Structured Intelligence platform from HeartToHeart at the device level.
Patients use connected health and wellness devices such as blood pressure monitors to acquire physiological data. As the data moves from sensor to mobile device, encryption is enabled by the ARM mbed TLS (Transport Layer Security) features. Once on the mobile device, data is kept secure in a TrustZone-enabled TEE and only the approved medical application can access the stored private data. Prior to any transmission of data, it must first be validated by the patient. The TEE also enables a secure user interface and touchscreen so data is always in the custody of the healthcare provider and patient.
