A greater standard of network confidentiality and protection is generally accepted as a vital component of securing this data when employed by medical practitioners as well as during storage to guarantee that patient data are maintained safe from intruders. This paper develops block chain cryptography and bio-informatics verification architecture for WBANs implementations. As a result, there is a deep desire to solve security and privacy challenges with WBANs. WBANs confront a wide range of problems. Because of its versatility in a wide range of applications, WBAN is a favoured battleground for cybercriminals. This work also provides a blockchain integrity check and bio-informatics authentication framework for WBANs implementations. Hence there is an important interest to address security and privacy problems in WBANs.
