Meet the FDA postmarket cybersecurity guidance and Section 524B: SBOM monitoring, vulnerability triage, VEX, and coordinated disclosure for devices on the market.
If the FDA raises a cybersecurity question, we answer it at no extra cost until the cybersecurity portion is closed.
275+ devices supported · No cybersecurity-related rejections to date
Full postmarket cybersecurity program built to the FDA Postmarket Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices guidance and Section 524B(b)(1) - coordinated vulnerability disclosure (CVD), SBOM monitoring, threat intel, patch management, and FDA reporting. 275+ devices supported.

Premarket to postmarket. One senior team owns every cybersecurity artifact the FDA reviewer will open.
Built to FDA Postmarket Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices guidance and Section 524B(b)(1) - controlled, uncontrolled risk, and compensating controls all covered.
Public CVD policy, intake workflow, triage SLA, and disclosure timelines - modeled on ISO/IEC 29147 and 30111, accepted by FDA reviewers.
Your shipping SBOM is matched daily in GoatWatch, our purpose-built postmarket platform, against NVD, CISA KEV, and vendor advisories. New CVEs triaged, VEX statements regenerated, and customer comms drafted on a fixed cadence.
Decision framework for emergency patches, planned updates, and end-of-support - every decision documented and audit-ready.
When a vulnerability triggers an FDA report (uncontrolled risk, MDR-eligible event), the workflow, template, and timeline are already in place.
Monthly retainer or annual fixed fee. No per-CVE invoicing. Every quarter you get a written postmarket program review.
When we audit an existing postmarket cybersecurity program, these are the gaps that show up first - and the ones FDA inspectors notice.
No security@ address, no published disclosure policy, no triage SLA. Researchers either go public or go away - both are bad outcomes.
An SBOM was generated for the submission and never looked at again. New CVEs against shipped components are not being detected, scored, or VEX'd.
When a vulnerability crosses the uncontrolled-risk threshold, there is no documented path to an FDA postmarket report - so it does not get filed.
Software updates ship without signature verification on the device side, or without rollback. A 524B(b)(1) finding waiting to happen.
Devices past their supported life are still in clinical use, with no documented compensating controls or sunset communication to customers.
Every CVE triggers a fresh internal debate about what to tell customers. No template, no cadence, no audit trail of what was disclosed when.
What you actually get versus a reactive MDR vendor or running postmarket monitoring on a spreadsheet.
| Capability | Blue Goat Cyber | Reactive MDR vendor | In-house |
|---|---|---|---|
| Built to FDA postmarket guidance + 524B(b)(1) | Mapped to every clause, reviewer-ready | Generic SOC/MDR playbook | Built from scratch, often incomplete |
| Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD) program | Policy, intake, triage, comms - operated for you | Not offered | Hard to staff, easy to neglect |
| SBOM + VEX kept current per release | Continuous, with per-CVE VEX statements | Static SBOM at handoff | Ages quickly without governance |
| Pricing model | Fixed-fee program, no per-CVE invoicing | Per-alert / per-incident billing | Unbudgeted internal time |
| Quarterly reviewer-format evidence | Included, audit-ready | Tickets only, no narrative | Pulled together at audit time |
Mutual NDA, then a 30-minute call to map your devices in-market, existing postmarket controls, SBOM coverage, and any open CVEs or customer disclosures.
CVD policy published, security@ intake live, your SBOM loaded into GoatWatch with NVD/KEV/vendor feeds wired up, and the patch/update decision framework documented inside your QMS.
New CVEs triaged within SLA, VEX statements regenerated, customer comms drafted, and FDA postmarket reports filed when thresholds are met. Quarterly written program review.
