Webinar: Medical Device Penetration Testing: What Every Manufacturer Must Know

from The Med Device Cyber Podcast

What are the unique challenges and regulatory requirements of medical device penetration testing? In this webinar episode with Christian Espinosa, CEO of Blue Goat Cyber, and Trevor Slattery, CTO of Blue Goat Cyber, you’ll learn: * How Medical Device Penetration Testing Differs from Traditional IT Security.Unlike conventional IT security testing, medical device penetration testing prioritizes patient safety and device functionality. Discover how attackers exploit firmware, wireless protocols, and hardware vulnerabilities—threats often overlooked in standard IT security assessments.*  Meeting FDA & Global Regulatory Requirements for Penetration Testing.With the FDA’s 2023 cybersecurity guidance, EU MDR expectations, and IEC 62304 compliance now requiring risk-based security testing, manufacturers must integrate penetration testing to avoid regulatory delays, design deficiencies, and costly late-stage changes.*  Identifying & Preventing the Most Exploited Medical Device Vulnerabilities.From weak authentication and unpatched third-party components to unencrypted communication channels, real-world attacks on pacemakers, insulin pumps, and hospital IoT devices illustrate the critical need for proactive security measures. Learn how these vulnerabilities could have been prevented.*  Medical Device Risk Matrix: Replacing Probability with Exploitability & Prioritizing Patient Harm.Traditional risk assessments rely on probability vs. impact, but medical device risk scoring prioritizes exploitability (CVSS-based) over probability for a more objective evaluation. Learn how patient harm replaces a solely HIPAA-focused data exposure approach, aligning risk assessment with real-world consequences.*  How Penetration Testing Strengthens Security & Accelerates FDA Approval.Early integration of security testing in development reduces costly last-minute fixes and regulatory deficiencies, while postmarket penetration testing ensures ongoing protection against evolving cyber threats, preventing unexpected recalls and compliance failures.
