Cybersecurity challenges in healthcare medical devices
| Resumo: | Medical devices are rapidly evolving and becoming more interconnected with healthcare networks, overcoming resource constraints, and increasingly focused on patient well-being and needs. This work intends to identify future research themes in the area of cybersecurity in health by surveying the articles being developed and identifying their current limitations and future work. The developed analysis was based on the publications with the highest number of citations, enabling us to find several challenges and restrictions such as integrating devices in systems. Innovations and the emergence of new technologies with inherent security vulnerabilities, will continue to evolve, escalating the attackers interest in exploiting unknown cybersecurity risks within healthcare. It is mandatory to consider cybersecurity risks since the conception of the devices to reduce security flaws, ensure the patients with a better quality of life, and guarantee information security properties. |
