Abstract 

A body sensor network (BSN), is a network of sensors de-
ployed on a person's body, usually for health care monitor-
ing. Since the sensors collect personal medical data, secu-
rity and privacy are important components in a body sensor
network. At the same time, the collected data has to read-
ily available in the event of an emergency. In this paper,
we present IBE-Lite, a lightweight identity-based encryp-
tion suitable for sensors, and developed protocols based on
IBE-Lite for a BSN.
