Overview
Medical devices are evolving rapidly as they become more software-driven, connected and interoperable across hospital networks, cloud platforms and mobile applications. While these advancements improve patient care, they also increase cybersecurity risks. In the Denmark growing healthcare and medical manufacturing ecosystem, ensuring that devices are secure and FDA 510(k) compliant is now essential for global market entry.
Cybersecurity testing, Vulnerability Assessment (VA) and Penetration Testing (PT) are key components of risk management for medical devices. These processes help manufacturers detect vulnerabilities early, strengthen device resilience and demonstrate compliance with FDA 510(k) premarket cybersecurity expectations.
Cyberintelsys, a CREST-accredited cybersecurity company trusted by medical device manufacturers internationally, provides specialized security testing, VA/PT and regulatory-focused assessment services for FDA 510(k) submissions in Denmark. Our experts support developers, importers and OEMs with deep cyber risk insights, device-centric testing methodologies and actionable compliance documentation.
Why Security Testing & VA/PT Matter for FDA 510(k) Compliance
The FDA requires medical device manufacturers to address cybersecurity risks in their design, development and premarket submissions. Inadequate security controls can lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, device malfunction or even patient harm.
Key reasons medical device VA/PT is critical:
Detect vulnerabilities in software, firmware and connectivity points before attackers exploit them
Meet FDA guidance on cybersecurity documentation for 510(k) submissions
Validate risk mitigation measures required under FDA and ISO 14971 expectations
Strengthen patient safety by ensuring device availability, integrity and confidentiality
Demonstrate global readiness for markets like the US, EU and APAC
Avoid costly delays, rejections or redesigning due to cybersecurity gaps
For manufacturers in Denmark aiming to submit devices to the U.S. market, robust cybersecurity testing and documented risk assessments are essential components of the regulatory pathway.
Cyberintelsys VA/PT & Security Testing Approach for FDA 510(k)
Cyberintelsys follows internationally recognized frameworks aligned with FDA, ISO 14971 and global cybersecurity best practices. Our testing methodology ensures thorough coverage of device attack surfaces while maintaining patient safety and device integrity.
1. Device Profiling & Scoping
We begin by analyzing the full device ecosystem, including:
Hardware architecture, embedded components and firmware
Mobile apps, web portals, cloud platforms and APIs
Wireless communication (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, BLE, Zigbee, LTE, etc.)
Network interfaces and IoMT connectivity
Third-party libraries, software dependencies and integrations
Outcome: A clear testing scope and asset inventory tailored for FDA cybersecurity expectations.
2. Vulnerability Assessment (VA)
Our team performs a mix of automated and manual analysis to detect weaknesses across all components.
Static and dynamic code-level review
Firmware and binary analysis
Misconfiguration checks and secure design validation
Cryptography reviews
API and cloud security assessments
Software dependency and supply-chain vulnerability analysis
Deliverable: A detailed VA report including descriptions, CVSS scoring, screenshots and remediation steps.
3. Penetration Testing (PT)
We simulate realistic cyberattack scenarios to demonstrate actual exploitability without causing device harm.
Network penetration testing (internal and external)
Embedded system exploitation
Wireless attack simulations
Cloud and API exploitation testing
Reverse engineering of device firmware
Application-level penetration testing (mobile, desktop, web)
Deliverable: Proof-of-concept exploit documentation and evidence showing real-world attack pathways.
4. Cyber Risk Analysis & FDA-Aligned Documentation
All findings are analyzed according to regulatory and clinical impact.
We provide:
Risk scoring based on likelihood and severity
Mapping to FDA requirements and cybersecurity documentation
Threat modeling aligned with STRIDE or MITRE ATT&CK
Recommendations aligned with secure design principles
Residual risk analysis and mitigation strategies
This documentation is formatted for direct inclusion in FDA submissions.
5. Remediation Support & Retesting
Once your team applies corrective actions, Cyberintelsys conducts retesting to verify closure of vulnerabilities and produce updated compliance evidence.
