With cyber attacks on the rise, it's critical to your patients and your business that you recognize the security threats you're facing and have a plan in place to prevent them. The 2018 Medical Device Security 101 Conference, hosted by the University of Michigan's Archimedes Center for Medical Device Security, is a 2.5-day educational workshop for healthcare providers, medical device manufacturers, and industry regulators to learn and speak frankly about medical device security threats and solutions.
