  1. Hacking Medical Devices By Jennifer Gross

  2. Growth of medical technologies • Medical technologies and computer science continue to mesh • Pacemakers • Insulin Pumps • Defibrillators • Just as susceptible to hacks and bugs as any other form of technology.

  3. Barnaby Jack • Renowned white hat hacker for McAfee • Hacked an insulin pump delivering 300 units of insulin to a mannequin in a matter of seconds. • Figured out how to hack pacemakers from up to 500 feet away http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ8PZeRwweA

  4. FDA’s Role • Responsible for evaluating all new medical devices and risks associated with them • Seldom will examine new devices prior to them being surgically implanted unless: • Repeated malfunctions • Recalled

  5. Other Organizations involved • Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) • Food and Drug Administration (FDA) • Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) • Department of Defense (DoD) • Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) • Department of Homeland Security (DHS)

  6. Politics…. • Economics behind reporting devices with defects • If a hospital were to file a report of an incident with one of the medical devices, the hospital is liable • Disincentive for notification • False sense of security • Lack of preparedness for any cyber security issues

  7. Encryption and Other Protections • All models of the various medical devices have the capability to use Advance Encryption Standard (AES) • Numerous backdoors to these devices • Backdoor could “at least have it been embedded deep inside the ICD core”

  8. Legal help? • Product Liability • Riegel v. Medtronic, Inc.

  9. Proposed solution • Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC) • Publicly auditable source-code

  10. Options • Use with risks of what can happen • Don’t use it at all
