dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this publication is to help organizations in the health sector reduce the attack surface by carrying out actions and controls to harden medical equipment based on the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). The document also establishes and contains a dedicated controls bank for protecting components in the network environment, protecting the network from attack and network hopping, as well as controls for reducing cyberrisks from external environments, thus helping institutions and users reduce cyberrisks present in Internet of Things (IoT) based medical devices within the organization. This publication is part of the "Cybersecurity Best Practices" collection, a compendium of practices, methodologies and recommendations in cybersecurity oriented to organizations, developed by the Israel National Cyber Directorate (INCD), and adapted in this series by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), with the objective of facilitating access to this body of knowledge throughout the Latin American and Caribbean region.
