Today’s medical technology systems are highly connected: devices communicate with one another, are maintained remotely, and are regularly updated via over-the-air updates. This connectivity opens up new attack surfaces, and a successful attack jeopardizes not only data but, in a worst-case scenario, patient safety as well.
CySecMed brings together medical technology professionals and executives every year to discuss current threat scenarios, regulatory requirements, and practical solutions in the field of cyber security.
Artificial intelligence is accelerating cyberattacks: they are becoming automated, scalable, and adaptive, increasingly calling classic security mechanisms into question. At the same time, many organizations have yet to implement even basic protective measures. Our colleague Torsten Herbert, Team Lead Medical Engineering at sepp.med, examines the dual-use role of AI as both an attack tool and a defense instrument in his presentation.
The presentation centers on the sepp.secure process method, which enables structured cybersecurity approaches: Secure by Design as an architectural principle and Compliance by Design for the early integration of regulatory requirements. The framework is aligned with ISO/IEC 27001, the NIS2 Directive, and the EU AI Act. Torsten Herbert presents concrete paths toward resilient, AI-supported security architectures.
