First Test Facilities/Product Recognized Under IEEE Cybersecurity Certification Program

The IEEE’s new certification program for medical device cybersecurity is off and running!

The IEEE Standards Association announced that several testing facilities operated by atsec Information Security have been officially recognized to conduct testing in accordance with the requirements of the IEEE’s Medical Device Cybersecurity Certification Program. The atsec facilities that have received IEEE recognition under the Program are located in Sweden, Germany, and the United States.

In addition, the IEEE says that the first medical devices have now been reviewed and certified in accordance with the requirements of the IEEE 2621 series of standards, which have been recognized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and which serve as the basis for the IEEE’s cybersecurity certification.
