Abstract

Wearable medical devices are becoming increasingly common in everyday life, and thus is the reliance on them, the data they generate, and the resulting treatment plans. However, recent events in the supply chains of other devices have shown the catastrophic outcomes manipulation of them can have. In this article we showcase the importance of supply chain cybersecurity for medical devices and describe measures that can mitigate these risks.
