Key MDS2 Form Security Capabilities and Questions Hospitals Need to Understand and Use
Description: The Manufacturer Disclosure Statement for Medical Device Security (MDS2) Form has become a standard method for Medical Device Manufacturers (MDMs) to communicate security details with Healthcare Delivery Organizations (HDOs). While lengthy, there are certain key capabilities and questions that HDOs can scrutinize more heavily during procurement to effectively identify and mitigate cybersecurity risk. This webinar will identify those capabilities and questions and demonstrate how to use them.

IEC 81001-5-1: The New Standard Making Waves with Regulators
Description: Cybersecurity testing goes beyond requirements verification and penetration testing. FDA and IEC 81001-5-1 identify several additional testing types, many of which can leave manufacturers confused in what they should submit for things like threat mitigation testing, vulnerability chaining, among others. This webinar will describe what the testing types are, when different testing types should be performed, and key ways to avoid issues during submissions.

Don’t Get Fooled: Avoid Common Deficiencies
Description: Have you been caught off guard by cybersecurity deficiencies from the FDA? You are not alone. While the guidance of what FDA is expecting has been getting more detailed and their expectations are clearer, manufacturers are still commonly getting stuck. In the spirit of April Fool’s Day, this webinar will cover common deficiency areas to ensure you don’t get “fooled” during your submission. We will outline the eSTAR areas where manufacturers commonly receive deficiencies.

Architectural Patterns for Securing the Medical Ecosystem
Description:
The modern healthcare ecosystem relies on connectivity to deliver life-saving patient care. From wearable continuous glucose monitors via Bluetooth to heavy-duty MRI machines on hospital Wi-Fi, the ways medical devices transmit data are as diverse as the devices themselves. However, this hyper-connectivity introduces critical vulnerabilities that threaten both data privacy and patient safety.
This webinar will break down the complexities of the connected medical ecosystem. We will move beyond basic network segmentation to explore concrete, secure-by-design requirements and architectural patterns tailored to the specific ways medical devices connect, communicate, and operate.
