Читать книгу Do No Harm - Matthew Webster - Страница 30

Security and technology go hand in hand. To understand the security risks within the IoMT, it really helps to understand the technology. Because this book is aimed at a general audience and not a technical one, we are only going to go deep enough to explain what the general issues are from a security standpoint. Please keep in mind much of what is discussed here is not true across the entire spectrum of medical devices. Each piece of technology has its own specific applicability.

Part of the reason it is so important to define what medical devices are is that it helps to determine what kinds of technology are built into the devices. Just as there is no one-size-fits-all in the medical device world, that is true for IoMT as well. Any generalizations made here are not meant to be applicable across the whole spectrum of IoMTs.
