With deep expertise in medical software, embedded systems, IoMT security, firmware testing, and hospital network risk management, Cyberintelsys ensures your product is engineered for safety, resilience, and regulatory compliance.
Our team aligns testing with FDA 510(k) cybersecurity expectations, NIST frameworks, IEC 81001-5-1, ISO 14971, and secure SDLC best practices, ensuring your device stands out in both Nigerian and global markets.
Why FDA 510(k) Cybersecurity Assessment Matters for Nigerian Manufacturers
The U.S. FDA has made cybersecurity a mandatory requirement for all medical devices seeking 510(k) clearance. Cyberintelsys helps streamline this complex journey.
• Early Detection of Technical Vulnerabilities
Cyberintelsys identifies firmware flaws, insecure cloud connections, weak authentication, outdated libraries, and unsafe communication protocols long before they can impact device performance or approval.
• FDA Regulatory Alignment & Documentation Support
Our experts prepare cybersecurity documentation tailored for FDA review, reducing rejections, technical queries, and submission delays.
• Patient Safety First
Cyberintelsys helps ensure that your device cannot be tampered with, manipulated, or disrupted by attackers—protecting real clinical environments and patient lives.
• Strengthen Your Global Competitiveness
With thorough cybersecurity validation from Cyberintelsys, Nigerian-built devices gain credibility and trust in markets such as the U.S., Europe, Middle East, and Asia.
• Local + Global Advantage
Cyberintelsys combines global regulatory experience with local Nigerian insights, ensuring your device is secure in U.S. hospitals AND within Nigerian healthcare infrastructure.
