FDA Cybersecurity Requirements
Your Roadmap to FDA Compliance
FDA regulations establish a comprehensive framework to ensure the safety and effectiveness of medical devices marketed in the US and implement labeling standards to protect public health. Are your devices compliant?

Core Requirements

Premarket Submissions
Premarket applications must be submitted to the FDA before a medical device can be legally marked in the US. Submissions vary based on the device's risk level and novelty and include:
- 510(K) Submissions for devices substantially equivalent to existing products
- Premarket Approval (PMA) for high-risk devices that must demonstrate safety and effectiveness through extensive data (often including clinical trials)
- De Novo Requests for novel devices without a legally marketed predicate that require a demonstration of safety and effectiveness

Cybersecurity Design Controls
The FDA requires evidence that cybersecurity has been considered in the device's design, including the implementation of necessary security features

Vulnerability Management & Remediation
Medical device manufacturers must submit proof of vulnerability triaging in their submissions to the FDA
SBOMs
A detailed list of all software components, including third-party and open-source elements, must be maintained for each medical device to facilitate vulnerability management

Postmarket Management
Medical device manufacturers must establish processes to monitor, identify, and address cybersecurity vulnerabilities post-market
