Security News > 2022 > April > Medical device cybersecurity: What to expect in 2022?

Cybellum released a survey report about medical device cybersecurity, along with trends and predictions for 2022.

Medical device cybersecurity has become an extremely complex challenge.

With medical devices becoming software-driven machines, and the rapid pace at which cybersecurity risk evolves due to new vulnerabilities, complex supply chains, new suppliers, and new product lines, it has become seemingly impossible to keep the entire product portfolio secure and compliant at all times.

75% of respondents noted that they don't have a dedicated senior manager responsible for device cybersecurity.

More than 55% of medical device manufacturers do not have a dedicated response team in place.

"We embarked on this survey to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the main challenges facing product security teams at medical device manufacturers, as part of our effort to help to better secure the devices," said David Leichner, CMO at Cybellum.
