Becoming ISO 27001 certified demonstrates conformity of your Information Security Management System (ISMS) with the documented standards and provides your customers with assurance regarding the security of your system.
Why Consider ISO 27001
Conformity to ISO 27001 demonstrates that you take cybersecurity seriously. Any organization that holds sensitive information is a candidate for ISO 27001 certification. In particular, companies in the healthcare, finance, public, and IT sectors can benefit greatly from a certified ISMS.
ISO 27001 for Med Tech
From hospital equipment that’s connected to wi-fi to implantables that are Bluetooth-enabled, many of today’s devices are designed to incorporate software connected to information networks into their primary functions. In addition to relying on connectivity to operate, many of these devices collect and store large amounts of confidential patient and diagnostic data.
This kind of functionality brings new sources of risk that extend beyond the traditional risks of device failure. With cybersecurity events on the rise across the globe, medical device manufacturers must take seriously any risks from forces intentionally trying to break into devices. Patients’ medical data is often the highest-risk data they have. Identity theft can be disputed, credit scores can be rebuilt, but health information cannot be changed. As a result, patients and regulators are demanding cybersecurity controls and protections more than ever.
While an ISO 27001 certification will not prevent cybersecurity events from happening, designing your program to the standard will reduce the overall risk by ensuring that your program is comprehensively addressing all aspects of cybersecurity.
