The FDA highlights the need for embedded cybersecurity within medical product manufacturing, noting that many devices do not align with established security standards. As manufacturing increasingly relies on connected devices and Operational Technologies, the focus has historically been on functionality rather than security. Experts, including Ms. Nivedita Murthy, outline challenges posed by legacy protocols and unencrypted connections in medical devices. They stress the importance of upgrading entire systems holistically and adhering to modern security standards to mitigate risks in this rapidly evolving digital landscape.
The FDA emphasizes embedding cybersecurity in medical manufacturing technologies, stressing that current equipment often lacks adequate security standards, prioritizing functionality instead.
Security leaders acknowledge that medical devices often operate on outdated protocols, creating vulnerabilities that need strategic upgrades to enhance overall cybersecurity.
