Medical devices Architecture Patterns: Fast Track
RCCE students will learn medical device cybersecurity including FDA premarket and postmarket guidance, medical device network security, legacy device protection, clinical network segmentation, and healthcare IoT security. RCCE students will learn to assess medical device cybersecurity risks in clinical environments, implement network segmentation to isolate medical devices from general IT networks, manage legacy medical device vulnerabilities without disrupting patient care, comply with FDA cybersecurity guidance and HIPAA security requirements, monitor medical device communications for anomalies, coordinate vulnerability disclosure with device manufacturers, and respond to cybersecurity incidents affecting medical devices while maintaining patient safety. This architecture course teaches secure system design using proven patterns, guardrails, and reference architectures. Building on core knowledge, RCCE students will learn to evaluate design options against security requirements, make informed trade-off decisions, and build systems that are resilient by design. Students gain the architectural thinking skills needed for security engineering and solution design roles.
