Presentation Summary
Twenty-five million Americans rely on implantable medical devices, including pacemakers, defibrillators, insulin pumps, and deep brain stimulators for important, life-sustaining functions. As remote monitoring and remote adjustment of these devices become more prevalent, the security risk from incidental and malicious breaches grows. Despite occasional news coverage, vulnerabilities have received relatively little attention, awareness of potential vulnerabilities and consideration for the consequences resulting from incidental loss or theft of devices remains largely limited to computer security specialists. Presently, discussion of these ethical, legal, and social issues is notably absent from the full spectrum of relevant professionals and academics.
This activity will consist of a video presentation followed by a hosted discussion.
