Medical Device Cybersecurity

Catalog description

Today’s medical devices are increasingly complex, integrated, and ubiquitous. However, these same characteristics increasingly expose medical devices to a growing number of cyber security risks. Compounding the challenge, safeguards that are appropriate for traditional IT equipment cannot easily be applied to medical devices. This course is designed to provide health technology professionals with an overview of the challenges and foundational knowledge on the topic of medical device security. The course will also offer specific guidance, skill sets, and tools appropriate for those professionals that can be used in mitigating security risks that exist in the expanding medical device ecosystem.
