The healthcare industry has (finally) woken up to cyber-security. Hospitals are starting to demand cyber-security in new devices and manufacturers are delivering. This is great news for the future - but what about the past and the present? In this talk we examine the current state of cyber security in healthcare. We look at the protocols that are used to transfer information round the networks, and the devices themselves to see how well they would stand up to a modern cyber-attack.
