Embedded systems play a vital role in mobile health (mHealth) by enabling real-time health monitoring and personalized care through devices like wearables and sensors. However, these systems handle sensitive health data, making them vulnerable to cyber threats such as data breaches and unauthorized access. Traditional security measures are often inadequate against evolving attacks, raising concerns over data safety. This paper reviews how cyber threat intelligence (CTI) can be integrated with embedded systems in mHealth to enhance security. CTI provides real-time insights into potential threats, enabling proactive detection and prevention through tools like intrusion detection systems and predictive analytics. The study examines current embedded system applications in mHealth, associated security challenges, and how CTI strengthens security frameworks. It emphasizes the need for specialized CTI models and collaborative threat intelligence sharing in the healthcare sector. We further provided a practical examples and case studies to showcase the application of CTI in securing embedded systems within mHealth environments. The key findings demonstrate CTI’s effectiveness in safeguarding vital health data and guiding future innovations in healthcare cybersecurity. The implications of this study would enhance data security, establish uniform security policies, and facilitate the growth of mHealth technology for effective development of optimal healthcare services by the practitioner, policymakers, medical health developers.
