Wireless Technology in Medical Devices

EMC Testing for Wireless Technology Contained in Medical Devices

Many portable medical devices incorporate wireless technology which may present risks for life-supporting equipment and other applications. To ensure compliance and prevent interference, you must validate your device to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards. Intertek has the facilities and expertise to help you identify and understand the regulatory requirements applicable to your device, while managing your overall testing to these standards and more:

• FCC Part 15
• FCC Part 18
• Industry Canada: ICES-001
• Industry Canada: Radio Standards Specifications (RSS)

Our 6-Point Security Check

With Intertek's expertise and experience in developing and guiding software and device security, you will be provided the information you need and the confidence you deserve when developing new software and devices. Our 6-Point Check consists of:

Cybersecurity Assessment

1. Scan according to OWASP Recommendations
We use custom and off-the-shelf automated tools that scan web applications to look for known security vulnerabilities such as cross-site scripting, SQL injection, command execution, directory transversal, and insecure server configuration.

2. Review Web Services configuration
We will review and identify the operations of your web service and provide feedback on any vulnerabilities or misconfigurations we find using automated and manual test methods.

3. Review Data Security Logs
During our testing we will work with your team to review and evaluate security logs generated during our tests and provide actionable information on any identified security gaps.

4. Discover potential SQL Injection points
We will identify how your web application works with your database and construct a series of automated and manual simulated scenarios to help identify any potential exploit paths.

5. Validate Security Controls
We will review and verify current security protocols and provide feedback on the current implementation and provide guidance for updated security measures if needed.

6. Recommend remediation steps
Following our tests, we will provide up to three hours of consultation to discuss and train on our findings and potential remediation techniques.
