The rise of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) attacks poses a significant threat to hospitals and healthcare providers, leading to financial losses, treatment delays, and even patient harm due to compromised diagnostic data. From 2020 to 2024, statistics highlight the alarming growth of these cyber threats worldwide, with the United States being a primary target.

This session will share real-world approaches healthcare organizations use to secure IoMT devices against emerging threats. It will present IoMT architectures, patterns, and the critical challenges stemming from the absence of a standardized security framework. Many manufacturers develop IoMT solutions with limited interoperability, enterprise integration, security, and visibility, leaving healthcare systems increasingly vulnerable. Without proactive security measures, IoMT exploitation could become a powerful tool for cybercriminals and nation-states to disrupt healthcare operations at scale.

Learning Objectives:

  • At the end of this session participants will be able to Identify key cybersecurity risks associated with IoMT devices and their impact on healthcare operations and patient safety.
  • Implement practical, proven cybersecurity strategies to enhance IoMT security and visibility within healthcare environments.
  • Identify various threats associated with IoMT. Analyze the challenges posed by the lack of standardized security frameworks in IoMT and how they contribute to vulnerabilities.
