IEC 60601 Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing | Medical Device Security Services in Thailand

Medical electrical devices today face two major expectations: patient safety and cybersecurity resilience. As healthcare systems across Thailand adopt digitally connected devices, meeting global standards such as IEC 60601 becomes essential for market approval, device reliability, and regulatory acceptance.

Cyberintelsys supports medical device manufacturers, OEMs, healthcare providers, and innovators in Thailand with end‑to‑end cybersecurity and compliance readiness aligned to IEC 60601 safety and performance requirements.


What is IEC 60601?

IEC 60601 is the internationally recognized standard for medical electrical equipment and systems. It defines essential requirements for:

  • Electrical and mechanical safety

  • Essential performance under normal and fault conditions

  • Risk management and functional safety

  • Usability engineering

  • Cybersecurity for network‑connected devices

Full IEC 60601 compliance is mandatory for market entry across multiple global regions, including Europe, the U.S., and Asia.


Why Cybersecurity is Now a Core Part of IEC 60601?

Modern medical electrical systems often connect to:

  • Hospital networks

  • Cloud platforms

  • Wireless interfaces

  • Companion mobile apps

  • Remote monitoring portals

This digital connectivity introduces significant cybersecurity risks. Therefore, IEC 60601 now expects manufacturers to demonstrate:

  • Secure firmware and software behavior

  • Protection against unauthorized access

  • Safe encrypted communication protocols

  • Reliable data protection mechanisms

  • Security logging, analytics, and audit trails

  • Regular patching, software updates, and risk management workflows

Cyberintelsys ensures your product meets these expectations using structured assessments and compliance readiness programs.

Strengthen Device Safety & Cybersecurity with IEC 60601 Compliance

Additional Requirements Under IEC 60601 for Modern Medical Devices

To further support manufacturers in Thailand, it is important to understand that IEC 60601 integrates multiple layers of safety and security expectations that go beyond traditional electrical tests. These expanded requirements include:

  • Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Compliance to ensure devices operate safely in high‑interference environments such as hospitals.

  • Essential Performance Verification to confirm the device maintains safe functionality even in failure scenarios.

  • Software Safety Classification under IEC 62304, which is often paired with IEC 60601 for devices containing software.

  • Usability Engineering Requirements under IEC 62366 to reduce user errors and improve patient safety.

  • Security Risk Management Integration requiring continuous monitoring, patching, and resilience planning.

Each of these requirements aligns with the cybersecurity expectations supported by Cyberintelsys.

How Cyberintelsys Supports End‑to‑End IEC 60601 Lifecycle Compliance

Cyberintelsys provides ongoing support throughout the device lifecycle — from initial design to global deployment:
