Secure Transition for Robotic Surgery With Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman

This study examines the secure transition for robotic surgery session. Surgeon sends set of instructions as data. The data is encapsulated with surgeon secure signature to conform surgeon identity. At the same time, patient information sends to the surgeon as a secure row of frames to estimate patient situation dependent on the real medical reports. Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman is use as an asymmetric encryption method. Here the session between surgeon console and interactive robot arm was achieved and supported with four secret keys. Two private keys are chosen on each side and two public keys are calculated from these private keys. These results indicate that the level of the security was improved by use asymmetric encryption rather than symmetric encryption. And by contributed four secret keys the patient information must be safer.
