| Popis: | The use of medical devices in healthcare networks is increasing as governments and private entities look to improve clinical outcomes while reducing overall costs associate with healthcare service delivery. These devices which used to be stand-alone, are now becoming more integrated with corporate and clinical networks, sharing data between devices and other data information systems. As a result, healthcare networks are being targeted by hackers and malicious users and there is increasing concern about the possible risks that medical devices pose to both the security of patient data and the physical safety of patients. Therefore, a Medical Device Vulnerability Mitigation Effort Gap Analysis Taxonomy (MDV-MEGA) toolset is proposed to better understand what effort has been made by different associated parties to tackle the medical device vulnerability problem, and ultimately, help the associated parties determine which areas need further attention. This paper reviews literature over the last five years aiming to identify the amount of effort that has been contributed by five medical device associated parties: Authority, Device Manufacturers, Healthcare Facilities, Standards Organisations and Academia. First, a general background is presented to highlight existing issues, then the research and effort trends are discussed along with a presentation of the collated data. Additionally, each effort item is presented in the Medical Device Vulnerability Mitigation Effort Gap Analysis (MDV-MEGA) Taxonomy. Finally, the overall picture is summarised and, based on the results, recommendations to tackle the identified effort gaps, and future areas of research are proposed. |
