To improve the quality of life for patients, Implantable Medical Devices (IMDs) are opening new opportunities for holistic health care monitoring and treatment of various medical conditions. Implanting radio frequency (RF) modules in IMDs proves beneficial in wireless connectivity and facilitated access to on-device data and post-deployment tuning during therapy. However due to this IMDs are susceptible to various security attacks. Different encryptions algorithms have been developed to prevent well known attacks on IMDs. However due to lack of secured key exchange protocol and immaturity of already-in-use wakeup protocols are two fundamental challenges that must be addressed to ensure the security of wireless enabled IMDs. In this research paper, we introduce an optical secure communication channel between an IMD and an external device. This channel enables an intrinsically user-perceptible unidirectional data transmission, suitable for physicallysecure communication with minimal size and energy overheads. We designed and implemented two protocols : (i) A low power wakeup protocol and a secure key exchange protocol. We investigated these two protocols using a human body model.
