Your support and collaboration encourage us to make an even greater impact in the year ahead. From the team at Medcrypt, we wish you happy holidays and a wonderful new year!

The healthcare sector faces unique #cybersecurity challenges, especially when it comes to medical internet of things and operational technology systems security. While the security of #medicaldevices has been getting most of the attention from regulators in recent years, Axel Wirth highlights a more immediate concern: non-targeted compromises exploiting vulnerabilities in OT and IoMT devices. "An attacker may not be looking for a medical device, they may be looking for an unpatched Windows computer, which happens to be a medical device," he says. With increasing guidance from HHS, this is a call to action for #healthcare organizations to prioritize security as an enabler of patient safety, healthcare organizations must proactively secure their infrastructure to stay ahead of threats.

The Health-ISAC Fall Summit was a powerful reminder that healthcare cybersecurity isn't just about protecting data- it's about safeguarding patient lives. As #cyberthreats continue to evolve, healthcare remains a target, making proactive security measures more critical than ever. The summit highlighted the need for comprehensive approaches to device safety. Proactive security measures must be integrated throughout a product's #lifecycle, with #artificialintelligence emerging as a powerful tool in threat detection. Regulatory alignment has become a key strategy for closing critical security gaps.

Most people think about cybersecurity in healthcare as protecting patient records or hospital networks. But what about the critical diagnostic systems that power life-saving medical decisions? The recent Synnovis cyberattack in the UK is a stark wake-up call. Traditional cybersecurity measures often fall short for complex diagnostic systems. MDMs need a comprehensive approach that includes unified cybersecurity standards, proactive vulnerability management, and robust incident response protocols.
