Learn the requirements of IEC 81001-5-1 Health software and health IT systems safety, effectiveness and security.
On September 27, 2023, the FDA issued a final guidance titled Cybersecurity in Medical Devices: Quality System Considerations and Content of Premarket Submissions. In it, the FDA recommends implementation and adoption of a “Secure Product Development Framework” or “SPDF”. IEC 81001-5-1, a reference standard for health software, is an ideal framework to consider. The MDR requires that software shall be developed and manufactured in accordance with the state of the art taking into account the principles of development life cycle, risk management, including information security, verification and validation. Today, IEC 81001- 5-1 is considered that state of the art for cybersecurity within the development lifecycle.
