Cybersecurity for Medical Devices (IoMT)
As medical devices become "connected," the line between physical and digital security has blurred. The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT)—including MRI machines and insulin pumps—represents a significant security surface.
Network Segmentation: Security systems now automatically "segment" medical devices into private virtual networks, ensuring that a breach in a guest Wi-Fi network cannot migrate to life-critical equipment.
Patch Management: Automated security scanners monitor the firmware of medical devices for known vulnerabilities, alerting IT teams to "unpatched" equipment that could be hijacked by ransomware.
