AB  - The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is a rapidly growing community of intelligent medical technologies dedicated to sensing, monitoring, and reporting patient vitals, often with the intent of communicating findings with healthcare professionals (HCPs). For the past two summers, 2020 and 2021, four undergraduate electrical/computer engineering and computer science students, and two high school STEM teachers, worked with two graduate student mentors to explore various IoMT use cases via their participation in a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) and Teachers (RET) program. During both summers, the REU/RET program was conducted remotely over nine weeks, not including pre-summer engagement activities. These pre-summer activities were designed to promote and encourage healthy mentor-mentee interactions while also providing an additional opportunity for participants to acclimate to their research projects before the program start.

Throughout this work, participants were able to gain or further develop skills in some of the following areas: Ethical Hacking, Data Science, Intrusion Detection Systems, Linux, Machine Learning, Networking, and Python, as well as interact with a designated smart device and testing environment. In the first summer, participants were assigned a smart glucose meter and tasked with 1) exploiting the potential threats associated with installing smart devices onto unsecured network configurations via address resolution protocol (ARP) poisoning, and 2) exploring social engineering tactics through cloning the device user application. Additionally, in the following summer, participants became acquainted with an existing IoMT dataset, developing an intrusion detection system (IDS) to accurately distinguish between normal and abnormal network packets due to a deployed Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack. The outputs of this work include: both sets of participants preparing verbal presentations, including demonstrations, and written papers outlining their results and experiences. After the project, participants should understand and implement a set of guidelines for utilizing IoMT devices more securely and with added privacy.
