You have heard the stories of security researchers delivering lethal doses of insulin to a pump, or delivering a lethal shock to a vulnerable defibrillator. But what is the reality of the medical device industry across the enterprise? Join me for an in-depth presentation about a two-year research project encompassing medical devices across all modalities inside today's healthcare landscape. Think they are firewalled off? Well think again. Scarier yet, many remain Internet facing.
This discussion will also highlight the fallout from security standards not being a requirement for medical device manufacturers, and my experience in identifying and reporting vulnerabilities. We are working towards a future where cyber security issues in medical devices are a thing of the past. We will discuss the recent success and traction we have gained with healthcare organizations, federal agencies and device manufacturers in addressing these security issues. The train is now moving, so please join me to find out how you can get involved and make a difference by ensuring research is focused on patient safety and human life for the public good.
