Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Lightweight and Privacy-Preserving Biometric Authentication Framework for Sustainable IoMT SystemsSaima Anwar Lashari, Mahmood A. Al-Shareeda et al.Biometric authentication provides secure, identity-bound access control for the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), crucial for wearable, implantable, and ambient devices. However, the inherent immutability and sensitivity of biometric data pose severe privacy risks in the event of a breach. Furthermore, conventional public-key cryptography is often too computationally intensive for resource-constrained IoMT hardware. To address these challenges, this paper proposes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2026 · 1,924 accessesView PDFCite
