A new generation of artificial pancreass could be vulnerable to cyber attacks that can alter the insulin level transmitted from a glucose monitor to the insulin pump. Dr. Yogish Kudva and his colleagues analyzed the resilience of artificial pancreatreas to cyber attack. Data must be encrypted to avoid tampering that could allow attackers to change insulin level with serious repercussion on the health of the patient. Security experts and medical staff agree on the need to implement security measures to protect the devices and introduce back up or warning mechanism to respond in case of attack.”]
