IoMT stands for “Internet of Medical Things”. It refers to a network of medical devices, sensors, and other health-related technology that are connected to the internet and can collect, transmit, and analyze patient data. IoMT is a subset of the larger Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem, which includes all connected devices.

In the healthcare industry, IoMT can be used to monitor patients remotely, track medication adherence, and provide real-time health data to doctors and caregivers. This can lead to improved patient outcomes, reduced hospital readmissions, and lower healthcare costs.

However, IoMT also presents unique security and privacy challenges. The sensitive nature of health data makes it a prime target for cyber attacks. Therefore, securing IoMT devices and networks is crucial to protect patient data and maintain trust in healthcare systems.
