The Healthcare Internet of Things: Rewards and Risks

the market on the evolution of healthcare to IoT connected devices
Advise providers, manufacturers and governments on best way forward
Inform on risks if security is not implemented

Age of the Possible

devices
Provides recommendations for the industry, regulators, and the medical profession to maximize value to patients while minimizing the security challenges originating in software, firmware, and communication technology across networks and devices

Security Must be Built-In

consumer technologies or operational technologies

Deploying IoT in healthcare could result in $63 billion in global savings

Less than 60% of healthcare providers have implemented security controls or a basic risk assessment for their IoT devices and networks

Healthcare IoT has Arrived

bands send health stats wirelessly to user’s phone or computer, allowing people to monitor and improve their own health.
Internally imbedded medical devices - Doctors can remotely monitor and maintain pacemakers to identify signs of problems before a heart attack
Wearable external medical devices - Insulin pumps can be monitored and adjusted wirelessly, giving the patient more control—and better care

Improve Fitness, Medical Outcomes and Quality of Life

unencrypted data sent wirelessly from devices or unprotected networks
Device tampering and network disruption - If a doctor can change settings remotely, then so could a criminal or terrorist
Accidental failures - Network or device failures could have serious consequences for patients

We Need to Vaccinate Ourselves from Risks to Our Security and Privacy

than as an afterthought; from the device, to the network, to communications and data center.
Industry and government should implement an overarching set of security standards or best practices for devices to address underlying risks
The regulatory approval paradigm for medical devices must change in order to incentivize innovations while enabling healthcare organizations to meet regulatory policy goals and protect the public interest
There must be an independent voice for the public, especially patients and their families, to strike a balance among effectiveness, usability, and security when the device is implemented and operated

Foster Innovation while Minimizing Security Risks
