Re: 510(K) Cyber Security Documentation

Hello and welcome to the Cove :bigwave:

Why do you think you need to include such documents in your submission?

Ronen.

As per new rule along with other documents we need to submit

Cybersecurity Documentation
The type of documentation that we recommend you submit in your premarket submission is summarized in this section. These recommendations are predicated on your effective implementation and management of the quality system in accordance with the Quality System Regulation, including Design Controls.6

In the premarket submission, manufacturers should provide the following information related to the cybersecurity of their medical device:

Hazard analysis, mitigations, and design considerations pertaining to intentional and unintentional cybersecurity risks associated with your device, including:
A specific list of all cybersecurity risks that were considered in the design of your device;
A specific list and justification for all cybersecurity controls that were established for your device.
A traceability matrix that links your actual cybersecurity controls to the cybersecurity risks that were considered;
To assure continued safe and effective device use, the systematic plan for providing validated updates and patches to operating systems or medical device software, as needed, to provide up-to-date protection and to address the product life-cycle;
Appropriate documentation to demonstrate that the device will be provided to purchasers and users free of malware; and
Device instructions for use and product specifications related to recommended anti-virus software and/or firewall use appropriate for the environment of use, even when it is anticipated that users may use their own virus protection software.

I would suggest dealing with it through risk management. Possibly even creating a separate FMEA for cybersecurity. That will cover the list of items considered. Controls will be defined to mitigate risk and facilitate traceability.

Things get tricky pretty quickly when you incorporate SOUP/COTS. You may have to have procedures to do malware scans before deploying. I would document those efforts / outcomes in a version description document.

In the FDA Guidance on Cybersecurity in Medical Devices: Quality System Considerations and Content of Premarket Submissions a new concept called SPDF is introduced. The guidance says, A Secure Product Development Framework (“SPDF”) is a set of processes implemented by the device maker designed to mitigate the number and severity of vulnerabilities in products throughout the device lifecycle.

However, there is no reference to any standard or framework which can be used to implement SPDF.

Does anyone have any more information on this subject? How do we go about implementing SPDF? What set of processes are needed? Where are they defined? Which framework can we use? etc.

Wow, thread resurrected after 9 years! Things have certainly evolved since then. Good (best, probably) link provided by @Miner . FDA is in on the MDIC work and they have a cybersecurity initiative. Might be helpful a) for information; and b) to continue watching for new developments.
