According to research from Frost & Sullivan, there are an average of 6.2 vulnerabilities per medical device and roughly 60% of all medical devices are unpatchable.
In an industry so reliant on human care and emotional support, the rise of IoMT and connected medical devices are improving operational efficiencies and enhancing patient engagement and satisfaction for better healthcare outcomes. Despite the infinite benefits and untapped potential of these devices, security remains an escalating concern, not only for providers, but for medical device manufacturers, the government, and the public. Regulation efforts have been made to combat this issue, but the focus has been aimed primarily at pre-market medical devices, leaving an entire fleet of currently used legacy medical devices unprotected.
In their new white paper, Medical Device and Network Security – Coming to terms with the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), Frost & Sullivan explores:
