Health-ISAC sets nine-domain MedTech cybersecurity baseline to guide medical device procurement, deployment
Health-ISAC published guidance on nine cybersecurity capability domains for evaluating and procuring medical devices, including authentication, authorization, encryption, logging, patching, secure remote access, privacy controls, cloud connectivity, and network boundary protection. The framework acknowledges that medical devices face unique constraints due to extended lifecycles, regulatory requirements, and patient-safety considerations, and recommends using documented compensating controls and layered protections when devices cannot natively support all security capabilities. The guidance is intended as a decision-support tool rather than a certification standard, emphasizing shared responsibility between healthcare delivery organizations and manufacturers throughout the product lifecycle.
Why it matters: Healthcare delivery organizations and medical device manufacturers need practical procurement and deployment criteria to align security expectations while managing device constraints and patient-safety risks.
