RAPS Virtual Events Presents: Cybersecurity Unauthorized (Registration Fees Apply)

Securing medical devices and documents for regulatory submissions from cyberattacks is challenging. Many medical device companies struggle to retrofit their security programs to address hardening, vulnerability management, and global- incident response. New statutory requirements in the United States are increasing the focus on planned postmarket activities in the submission process. Cybersecurity has become mission-critical for medical device manufacturers.

Health authorities spanning the US, Australia, Canada, and Japan, have issued cybersecurity guidance that is essential for regulatory affairs professionals to understand. In addition to premarket concerns, some of the guidance also includes expectations for post-market expectations.

This interactive workshop will help regulatory and quality professionals develop the knowledge they need to help steer their organizations in the right direction when it comes to global cybersecurity.

Technical staff will get a better understanding of how to translate regulatory expectations into concrete design and development. Organizational leaders will gain strategic knowledge that will increase the likelihood of gaining green lights from regulators while also teaching them how to establish trust with customers concerned about risk related to medical devices on their networks.
