FDA tells medical device makers to focus on cybersecurity

Medical device makers should take new steps to protect their products from malware and cyberattacks, FDA says. The FDA issued new cybersecurity recommendations for medical devices on Thursday. Recent vulnerabilities involving Philips fetal monitors and Oracle software used in body fluid analysis machines are among the incidents that prompted the recommendations. The agency doesn’t have “any indication that any specific devices or systems in clinical use have been purposely targeted at this time,” it says. Manufacturers should review their cybersecurity practices to assure that appropriate safeguards are in place to prevent unauthorized access, the agency says.”]
