Cybersecurity is a concern for the health and safety of patients when it comes to medical devices like connected pacemakers, robotic surgery, and remote patient monitoring. Only when done securely, IoT innovation in healthcare has the potential to change the game.
Penetration testing for medical devices identifies any potential design weaknesses in the hardware, software, and communication protocols that could compromise the device's security. It aids firms in comprehending how their technologies may affect security as well as ways to raise overall security maturity.
The objective of a penetration test is to simulate a cyber-attack to evaluate the security status of the medical device/software. The aim is to identify unknown weaknesses found during manual tests. Test report results can be used as an objective evidence for the effectiveness of cybersecurity in a medical device.
