Denmark healthcare sector is growing rapidly with increased adoption of connected medical devices, telemedicine systems and smart hospital technologies. As devices become more software-driven and network-dependent, cybersecurity risks have become a critical concern for both manufacturers and healthcare providers.
To enter the U.S. market, medical devices must meet the FDA’s cybersecurity expectations under the 510(k) premarket submission process. FDA 510(k) Cybersecurity Readiness and Risk Assessment are essential steps to ensure that devices are designed, tested and validated with strong cybersecurity controls that protect patient safety and clinical operations.
Cyberintelsys supports medical device manufacturers in Denmark with comprehensive cybersecurity readiness assessments and security testing solutions aligned with FDA 510(k) guidance and international standards.
Importance of Cybersecurity Readiness for FDA 510(k)
The FDA requires manufacturers to demonstrate that their devices are secure by design and resistant to cybersecurity threats. Any failure to address vulnerabilities could result in device malfunction, data compromise or severe patient harm.
Key reasons cybersecurity readiness is essential
• Ensures early identification of cyber risks throughout the development lifecycle
• Supports compliance with FDA premarket cybersecurity documentation
• Demonstrates strong security controls for device safety and reliability
• Prevents regulatory delays and reduces the risk of costly redesigns
• Builds trust with hospitals, clinicians and regulatory bodies
With the Denmark expanding medtech manufacturing ecosystem, achieving FDA cybersecurity readiness is a crucial step for global market access.
Cyberintelsys FDA-Aligned Cybersecurity Readiness Approach
Cyberintelsys provides a structured and compliance-focused approach to help medical device companies prepare for FDA 510(k) cybersecurity requirements.
1. Device Cybersecurity Profiling
We begin with a complete review of device architecture, usage environment and connectivity:
• Hardware, firmware and embedded software components
• Wireless and wired communication methods
• Companion applications including cloud, web and mobile
• Third-party libraries and integrated subsystems
Deliverable: Device cybersecurity profile and component mapping.
2. Threat Modeling and Risk Assessment
• Identification of potential attack vectors
• STRIDE and MITRE-based threat modeling
• Analysis of device impact on patient safety and clinical workflows
• Evaluation of exploitation likelihood and severity
Output: FDA-ready cybersecurity risk assessment aligned with ISO 14971 and FDA guidance.
3. Security Controls Evaluation
Cyberintelsys assesses existing security controls to ensure they meet FDA expectations, including:
• Authentication and authorization mechanisms
• Data protection and encryption controls
• Secure communication protocols
• Access control and privilege management
• Patch management and update mechanisms
• Logging, monitoring, and audit trail capabilities
Gaps are identified with clear remediation recommendations.
4. Vulnerability Assessment and Security Testing
• Automated vulnerability scanning using industry-grade tools
• Manual code and configuration reviews
• Penetration testing of network interfaces and device applications
• Wireless security testing for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, BLE and IoMT channels
• API and cloud platform security testing
Deliverable: Detailed vulnerability report with CVSS scoring, remediation steps and proof-of-concept evidence.
5. FDA 510(k) Documentation Support
Cyberintelsys prepares submission-ready documentation including:
• Cybersecurity risk assessment reports
• Threat modeling evidence
• Security testing results
• Software Bill of Materials (SBOM)
• Secure development lifecycle documentation
• Post-market cybersecurity management plan
6. Remediation and Retesting
Once corrective measures are implemented, we conduct additional testing to confirm resolution and readiness for FDA submission.
