<div dir="ltr">I agree with Adrian as well. Medical Devices tend to be given excuse out of security, when they should not. When security and Privacy are designed into the product, they fold in seamlessly. I add my dozen years of experience with medical device to Adrian in support of being inclusive. <div><br></div><div>The only exception, which can be addressed in designed, is robustness in the face of degraded infrastructure. Think about a mega natural disaster that takes out major infrastructure in a region (e.g. Katrina). Medical devices sometimes include in their scope the claim to continue to provide their medical device claimed benefit even when the network (e.g., AS) are missing. Such as a bedside lifesign monitor, or ventilator breathing for the patient. It is possible for non-medical device to do this as well, but is less likely that a non-medical device would determine that the functionality it brings is more important than security. This trade-off is (should be) careful risk management. This kind of trade-off should only be seen as acceptable when the functionality is life-sustaining or life-critical. Yes, it applies to many things used in the Emergency Room, but is not a normal Emergency Room situation as that is... normal for an emergency room... This is a small fragment of the market. Too often this kind of use-case is used as excuse for poor design. </div><div><br></div><div>John</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">John Moehrke<br>Principal Engineering Architect: Standards - Interoperability, Privacy, and Security<br>CyberPrivacy – Enabling authorized communications while respecting Privacy<br>M +1 920-564-2067<br><a href="mailto:JohnMoehrke@gmail.com" target="_blank">JohnMoehrke@gmail.com</a><br><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnmoehrke" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnmoehrke</a><br><a href="https://healthcaresecprivacy.blogspot.com" target="_blank">https://healthcaresecprivacy.blogspot.com</a><br>"Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?"

(I have a lot of experience developing numerous FDA-regulated medical devices as well as unregulated health records.) Implants, wearables, home monitors will all need security regardless of whether they are regulated by FTC or FDA or prescribed by a physician. Off-hand, I can't think of a single instance where the regulatory environment will impact HEART access authorization (resource architecture, scope design, best practices).<div><br></div><div>The one obvious place where regulatory issues come in is auditing. Some applications have stringent data retention requirements, possibly including non-repudiable signatures. There could also be mandatory reporting to state agencies.
