Protecting the Bedside: Building Cyber Resilience for Connected Medical Devices

Patient monitors and other connected medical devices have become inseparable from hospital care and from the technology environment supporting it. Their connectivity can improve access to information but also expands the attack surface across devices – devices that often remain in service for years, operate around the clock and depend on networks, software and third parties. When part of that ecosystem is compromised, the impact can extend beyond data privacy to clinical workflows and continuity of care.
