Full Spectrum has released a new suite of cybersecurity services that address healthcare companies’ needs for ensuring privacy, safety, and reliability in an interconnected world.

An FBI report found that more than half of connected medical devices in hospitals have known critical vulnerabilities, and 40% of devices at the end-of-life stage have little or no security patches. Additional research identified close to 1,000 security vulnerabilities across 966 tested medical devices in 2023—a 59% year-over-year increase from the previous year. As security risks continue to surge, it’s essential that health technology organizations prioritize cybersecurity to safeguard against breaches and protect consumers’ and patients’ welfare, according to the company.

Full Spectrum’s suite of cybersecurity services include Cybersecurity Portfolio Risk Analysis, Cybersecurity Process and Tools Assessment and Remediation, Product Cybersecurity Assessment and Remediation, Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) and System Vulnerability Assessment and Monitoring, and Cybersecurity Architecture.

“Trust in medical devices, health information systems, medical mobile applications, and robotic systems is based on the expectation of stringent cybersecurity. As medical technologies are increasingly connected, this only continues to grow in importance,” Full Spectrum CEO Adam Hesse said. “We have the deep knowledge and experience to offer customized cybersecurity solutions that protect organizations’, patients’, and consumers’ sensitive data, secure devices, and guarantee adherence to changing regulatory standards to ensure compliance.”

Full Spectrum is a product development and engineering services company that provides cutting-edge solutions to clients in the medical device, digital health, and life science sectors. With its expertise in systems engineering, technology consulting, and product development, the company is a preferred partner for organizations seeking to stay ahead in the rapidly evolving healthcare landscape.
