Project Title - Enhanced cybersecurity for networked medical devices through optimisation of guidelines, standards, risk management and security by design

Keywords -  cybersecurity, medical devices, diagnostic and implantable devices

The CYMEDSEC project aims to create new cybersecurity standards and develop solutions for industry and regulatory authorities. The overall aim is to promote innovation and facilitate approval through an improved regulatory process in the EU healthcare sector. It will deliver novel security-by-design solutions for the oversight of ‘Internet of Medical Things’ (IoMT) devices, including connected in vitro diagnostics. IoMT ‘fleet’ cybersecurity oversight systems will be developed. Use cases explored include remote patient monitoring and critical care scenarios, for which the project will develop novel and highly secure gateway middleware.
