Agenda
Mobile medical is hot Applications Threat scenarios A threat model framework for secure
code Summary
Mobile medical devices are hotMobile consumer electronics creates potential for life-saving applications that are cheaper and more accessible than any other alternative.
Social benefit comes at the price of cyber threats.
In this talk we present a systematic method of analysing cyber threats in mobile medical devices.
Applications
Threat scenarios
Countermeasures
MOBILE MEDICAL APPLICATIONS
Data trackingWho: Patients, care-givers, doctorsWhat: Data acquisitionWhy: Controlling symptoms of chronic illness requires tracking data over long periods of time.• Glucose• Heart rate• Blood pressure• Dosage (insulin, dopamine …)• ...Platforms : Smart-phones, data & location-based services.
Diabetes
Parkinson/MSAAlzheimer
Asthma
Life-sustainingWho: PatientsWhat: Implanted devices for cardiac pacing, defibrillation, drug delivery…Why: Sustain lifePlatforms : Embedded devices with mobile connectivity for remote monitoring & programming.
Chronic heart disease
Epilepsy
Diabetes
Depression“…the latest technology in a full complement of patient-focused CRM products”
THREAT SCENARIOS
Threat scenario templateAn attacker may exploit vulnerabilities to cause damage to assets.
Security countermeasures mitigate vulnerabilities and reduce risk.
Asset
Vulnerability
Attacker
Radio attack scenario
Patient with ICD
Clear text
protocol
Threat T1 – A malicious attacker may exploit a clear text protocol and instruct an ICD to deliver a shock that would cause sudden cardiac death.
Vulnerability V1 – Clear text communications protocol
Countermeasure C1 – Encrypt network link Countermeasure C2 – Validate messages using secure tokens.
Attacker
Implantable Cardioverter DefibrillatorsIn 2008, approximately 350,000 pacemakers and 140,000 ICDs were implanted in the US.
Forecasted to $48BN in 2014.
Proof of concept attack:• Reverse-engineered
commands• Intercepted vital signs, history• Reprogrammed therapy
settings• DoS to deplete battery• Directed the ICD to deliver
137V shocks that would induce ventricular fibrillation in a patient.

Device defect attack scenario

Device malfunctio
n
Threat T2 – An internal short circuit is undetected by the device control software and may be fatal.Vulnerability V2 – Software doesn’t monitor hardware malfunctions
Countermeasure C3 – Notify customer service when hardware issue identified.Countermeasure C4 – Implement fail-safe function
FDA device recallsThe FDA issued 23 recalls of defective devices in H1/2010.
All were “Class 1” :
“reasonable probability that use of these products will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.”
At least 6 recalls were probably caused by software defects.
Malicious code attack scenario
ePHI
Weak or well-known
passwords
Software defects
OS vulnerabiliti
es
Malware
Threat T3 – Malicious code may be used in order to exploit multiple vulnerabilities and obtain patient informationVulnerability V3 – USB, and/or Internet access enabled
Countermeasure C4 – Hardware toggle USBCountermeasure C5 – Network isolation
Countermeasure C6 – Software security assessment
Mobile clinical assistantsMobile imaging analysis devices used by hospital radiologists had unplanned Internet access. Over 300 devices infected by Conficker and taken out of service.
Regulatory requirements mandated that the impacted hospitals would have to wait 90 days before the systems could be modified to remove the infections and vulnerabilities.
Where is the FDA?Guidance documents from 2015 extend FDA regulatory oversight –
1. Mobile apps that are medical devices, draft 2/2015
2. Cyber security for networked devices, final 10/2014
However - If a device has FDA pre-market approval, consumers cannot sue the manufacturer for injuries and disability incurred because of the device.

A threat model security framework
Objectives
Assess product risk Understand what
threats count Prioritize
countermeasures. Drive profits
Premarket approval.Cyber security asset and threat framework.
Assess product risk
Understand what threats count
Prioritize countermeasuresProduct management has 1 dollar in their pocket:
Countermeasure C1 – Encrypt network link to ICD
Countermeasure C21 – Validate POST requests with secure tokens.
Countermeasure C3 – Wearable “cloaker” to ensure that only authorized programmers can interact with the device.
Drive profits
Transparency means more eyeballs can look at issues.
More eyeballs reduces cost.
More eyeballs means safer devices.
Safer devices means more revenue.
Medical device threat models are transparent.
