FALLS CHURCH, Va., Dec. 5, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Medical Device Cybersecurity Risks & Best Practices
Navigating the Nuanced Cyber Regulatory Waters
**An FDAnews Webinar**

The smarter medical devices get, the more vulnerable they become.

Cybersecurity is becoming an everyday risk.

FDAnews has reached out to global cybersecurity expert Norma Krayem to spell out the risks and what to do about them.

Over the course of 90 fast-paced minutes, Ms. Krayem will move from the Cybersecurity Executive Order 13800 to HIPAA, Homeland Security and more:

  • Cybersecurity-triggered changes in the interpretation of HIPAA, and enforcement by the HHS Office of Civil Rights, as they affect quality and regulatory matters
  • Cybersecurity as an enterprise risk management issue affecting security, risk and privacy functions in device firms
  • Homeland security: How DHS cybersecurity initiatives, including the Automated Information Sharing (AIS) program, can help explain the threat from nation-states, non-state actors and other potential attackers
  • FDA's evolving focus on cybersecurity and how it impacts the risk, responsibilities, and regulation of companies
  • The Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act (CISA) and the Protected Critical Infrastructure Information (PCII) as potential "safe harbors"
  • New international privacy and cybersecurity laws impacting the health sector

With U.S. agencies, FDA, HHS, DHS, all at work on new sector risk bulletins and re-evaluation of current rules such as HIPAA, and global regulators equally involved, this is a pressing matter. Address it now, by committing an hour and a half to this timely learning session.
