The use of connected surgical robotics to automate medical procedures presents new privacy challenges. We argue that conventional patient consent protocols no longer work. Indeed robots that replace human surgeons take on an extraordinary…

Despite the immense potential of AI-powered medical devices to revolutionize healthcare, concerns regarding their safety in life-critical applications remain. While the European regulatory framework provides a comprehensive approach to…

Our lives become increasingly dependent on safety- and security-critical systems, so formal techniques are advocated for engineering such systems. One of such techniques is validation obligations that enable formalizing requirements early…

The integration of AI into radiology introduces opportunities for improved clinical care provision and efficiency but it demands a meticulous approach to mitigate potential risks as with any other new technology. Beginning with rigorous…

Device-independent quantum information is attracting significant attention, particularly for its applications in information security. This interest arises because the security of device-independent protocols relies solely on the observed…

Machine Learning (ML) is now used in a range of systems with results that are reported to exceed, under certain conditions, human performance. Many of these systems, in domains such as healthcare , automotive and manufacturing, exhibit high…

As Automated Driving Systems (ADS) technology advances, ensuring safety and public trust requires robust assurance frameworks, with safety cases emerging as a critical tool toward such a goal. This paper explores an approach to assess how a…

The use of technology in healthcare has become increasingly popular in recent years, with the potential to improve how healthcare is delivered, patient outcomes, and cost-effectiveness. This review paper provides an overview of how…

We aim to provide a solution for the secure identification of sensitive medical information. We consider a repository of de-identified medical data that is stored in the custody of a Healthcare Institution. The identifying information that…

Manufacturing of medical devices is strictly controlled by authorities, and manufacturers must conform to the regulatory requirements of the region in which a medical device is being marketed for use. In general, these requirements make no…

Technology has become a global tool that allows us to obtain information and analyze data, streamlines communication, and allows us to share images, data, videos, texts, etc. Daily activities have gone from traditional to digital. Today, it…

This paper proposes a framework based on a causal model of safety upon which effective safety assurance cases for ML-based applications can be built. In doing so, we build upon established principles of safety engineering as well as…

Connected Medical Devices (CMDs) have a large impact on patients as they allow them to lead a more normal life. Any malfunction could not only remove the health benefits the CMDs provide, they could also cause further harm to the patient.…

The development of high-throughput sequencing and targeted therapies has led to the emergence of personalized medicine: a patient's molecular profile or the presence of a specific biomarker of drug response will correspond to a treatment…

With the emergence of quantum computing, a growing number of quantum devices is accessible via cloud offerings. However, due to the rapid development of the field, these quantum-specific service offerings vary significantly in capabilities…

Preclinical patient care is both mentally and physically challenging and exhausting for emergency teams. The teams intensively use medical technology to help the patient on site. However, they must carry and handle multiple heavy medical…

This study aims to develop a wearable device that collect health data from maintenance personnel and environmental conditions data in order to ensure the safety of the staff in industrial work areas where have different levels of risk…

The integration of AI/ML into medical devices is rapidly transforming healthcare by enhancing diagnostic and treatment facilities. However, this advancement also introduces serious cybersecurity risks due to the use of complex and often…

Separation kernels provide temporal/spatial separation and controlled information flow to their hosted applications. They are introduced to decouple the analysis of applications in partitions from the analysis of the kernel itself. More…

The continued integration of technology into all aspects of society stresses the need to identify and understand the risk associated with assimilating new technologies. This necessity is heightened when technology is used for medical…
