Protecting Patients Requires Protecting App-Connected Medical Devices

Healthcare providers are increasingly investing in mobile devices and apps because they help save lives, but they come with critical security risks. Vulnerable app-connected medical devices used for dispensing medicines and therapies, access based on implicit trust, limited threat protection, and operational complexity make it hard to defend healthcare networks and patient PII. Ensuring patient health is always the critical factor in how much security is enough. The compromise of an app can result in severe consequences for both patient health and patient data. With the continued growth in the deployment and use of app-connected medical devices, cyberattacks, be they malicious or not, are only likely to increase. In order to minimize any gaps in security, mobile applications need advanced and dynamic detection capabilities that can detect even zero-day threats to keep the application and user safe at all times, even long after the system was designed and running. This post-market surveillance is a critical aspect of long term security posture.
