The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is structured upon both the sensing and communication infrastructure and
computation facilities. The IoMT provides the convenient and cheapest ways for healthcare by aiding the remote
access to the patients’ physiological data and using machine learning techniques for help in diagnosis. The
communication delays in IoMT can be very harmful to healthcare. Device to device (D2D) secure communication
is a vital area that can reduce communication delays; otherwise, caused due to the mediation of a third party. To
substantiate a secure D2D communication framework, some schemes were recently proposed to secure D2D
based communication infrastructure suitable for IoMT-based environments. However, the insecurities of some
schemes against device physical capture attack and non-provision of anonymity along with related attacks are
evident from the literature. This calls for a D2D secure access control system for realizing sustainable smart
healthcare. In this article, using elliptic curve cryptography, a certificate based D2D access control scheme for
IoMT systems (D2DAC-IoMT) is proposed. The security of the proposed D2DAC-IoMT is substantiated through
formal and informal methods. Moreover, the performance analysis affirms that the proposed scheme provides a
good trade-off between security and efficiency compared with some recent schemes.
