Details

Pocket Clinic Corp. is seeking to enhance the security of its medical devices by developing robust cybersecurity protocols. The primary goal of this project is to ensure secure communication between the medical device, its mobile app, and the cloud. This involves defining security measures for the device, establishing a cybersecurity protocol for Bluetooth communication between the app and the device, and creating a protocol for secure data transmission from the mobile app to the cloud. The project will provide learners with an opportunity to apply their knowledge of cybersecurity and network protocols in a practical setting. By focusing on these specific areas, the project aims to protect sensitive medical data from unauthorized access and ensure patient privacy. The project is designed to be completed by a team of learners allowing them to gain hands-on experience in the field of medical device security.

Deliverables

The project deliverables include a comprehensive report detailing the defined security measures for the medical device and the developed cybersecurity protocols for both Bluetooth communication and cloud data transmission. Additionally, a prototype implementation of these measures will be created, followed by a testing and validation report to ensure the effectiveness of the security protocols. These deliverables will demonstrate the learners' ability to apply theoretical knowledge to practical cybersecurity challenges.
