This role is the primary owner of product security architecture, system threat modeling, and the translation of FDA and consensus standards guidance into actionable security requirements and verification evidence. Working closely with Software Engineering, Quality, and Regulatory teams, the Cybersecurity Engineer ensures that Verathon's products are designed and documented to satisfy regulatory expectations throughout the product lifecycle, from initial design through post-market sustaining activities. Responsibilities Define product security architecture, including identification of software and hardware assets, trust boundaries, control objectives, and interface documentation; specify and review designs for authentication, authorization, cryptography, secure update mechanisms, event logging, data integrity, and system hardening (including STIG-based hardening where applicable) * Lead system-level threat modeling (e.g., STRIDE / MITRE ATT&CK for ICS) and allocate mitigations across hardware, firmware, and software; ensure trust-boundary assumptions are explicit, traceable, and testable * Derive cybersecurity requirements from FDA guidance and consensus standards (IEC 62443, IEC 81001-5-1, AAMI SW96); define verification strategies specifying required evidence, timing, and ownership * Produce and maintain design-level product security documentation including architecture views, control rationale, security requirements traceability matrices, and interface/external connection records * Own the engineering interface during penetration testing and other third-party security engagements: lead scope clarification, environment setup, and technical Q&A; assess design impact of findings; define remediation technical approach and support retest readiness * When post-release remediation is required, define technical scope and verification approach; coordinate with engineering and release functions to ensure validated deployment and documentation closure * Lead interoperability security assessments for device interfaces with external systems, networks, and devices; evaluate security and safety risks across normal and fault operating modes and define appropriate risk controls for interface trust boundaries * Conduct CVE impact analysis for fielded products; assess applicability of newly disclosed vulnerabilities to system-level components and architecture; support prioritization and remediation scoping * Contribute to release readiness for security-driven sustaining updates, including inputs to patch packaging, documentation updates, and design change records * Collaborate with the Software to ensure security requirements are correctly allocated and verification evidence is complete across the system * Work cross-functionally across Systems, Software, Quality, and Regulatory disciplines to align on security architecture decisions and ensure consistent implementation * Own and maintain the Product Security Management Plan and associated Product Security Management File, ensuring all required cybersecurity activities are planned, traceable, and audit-ready * Support Verathon's Quality Management System (QMS), including participation in design reviews, ECO procedures, and DHF/regulatory submission artifact preparation * Stay current with evolving FDA cybersecurity guidance, EU MDR and MDCG 2019-16, NIST CSF, and relevant medical device security standards; identify implications for Verathon products and processes ## Related Videos - [Cybersecurity for Software Defined Vehicles](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/725-cybersecurity-for-software-defined-vehicles) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Playing Pong on a shoulder press machine](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100140-playing-pong-on-a-shoulder-press-machine) - [A Hitchhikers Guide to Container Security - Automotive Edition 2024](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1119-a-hitchhikers-guide-to-container-security-automotive-edition-2024) - [Security Pitfalls for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/726-security-pitfalls-for-software-engineers) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [Events like RSAC Get You CISOs.
