Think Tank - 10:35 am - 10:55 am

Medical device security will become an increasing concern for healthcare organizations, particularly as more of these devices are connected to the Internet, internal networks, and Wi-Fi. The increasing connectedness these medical devices will force more and more healthcare organizations to implement security solutions. 

Pre-market challenges: 

  1. Insecure product development 
  2. Lax FDA approval process especially for patient safety devices with internet connectivity 

 Post-market challenges: 

  1. Ineffective procurement processes 
  2. Lack of central management and real time visibility 
  3. Decoupled management by IT and Biomedical Engineering.
