Abstract
As mobile computing has become very common, a new vulnerabilities and security threads appeared. Cloud computing is a new distribution model of services for various technologies and solutions including the mobile applications. Mobile cloud computing benefits from the interconnection of these two areas. This approach brings many assets, but on the other hand, also the security risks and potential problems. This paper discuss ecurity aspects of mobile cloud computing with a focus on the developed health care mobile application using cloud computation services. Personal data about health of the person are one of the most confidential thus need to be secured against different types of threats. Proposed solution is based on the smartphone as a client gathering data and the cloud servers as a computational platform for data storage and analysing.
