Ten years ago, Singapore's healthcare system got hacked. Patient records were stolen at a national scale. The government responded by building one of the most comprehensive medical device security frameworks in the world.
The Cybersecurity Labeling Scheme has four tiers. Level one means basic security controls exist. Level four means the device underwent independent code review, has advanced threat detection, and maintains continuous vulnerability management. Hospitals can see exactly what level of security they're getting before they buy.
Jun Xiang from CareHero explains why this matters, especially now that AI is showing up in medical devices without proper testing. He covers adversarial attacks on medical images, why doctors are uploading patient data to ChatGPT, and what automation bias does to clinical decision making.
Practical conversation about medical device security in Southeast Asia and what manufacturers need to know about Singapore's approach.
