Over 10 million Americans rely on medical devices that may be vulnerable to cyberattacks. The COVID-19 pandemic has only increased the public s reliance on these medical devices, in part because many patients are seeing their healthcare providers via telehealth. The risks arise also as hospitals increasingly connect medical equipment to the internet. Such connections feed data into electronic patient records systems, creating risks for hacking and breaches. MRI scanners, x-ray machines, heart rate monitors, blood pressure monitors, respiration monitors, glucose sensors, brain liquid pressure sensors, endoscope capsules, and cardiac arrhythmia monitors/recorders are examples of medical devices at risk. This activity discusses the vulnerabilities and provides risk mitigation strategies.
