since it has so many issues, it may be best for complete rewrite...IMO--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 10:28, 5 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

I added a specific instance with the FDA warning Medtronic that their devices have security vulnerabilities. I;m going to add a couple more instances soon with some research about how to combat these attacks in the future. 128.125.148.1 (talk) 01:13, 11 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

...Starting with the removal of the neologism "MEDJACK", which appears to be a word TrapX made up for marketing purposes which a few websites with small readerships picked up on as if it was an actual term in common use. --Guy Macon (talk) 14:49, 5 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

I added another instance of the hacks taking place in a health care provider system. The issue of medical device hijack has become very well studied by numerous academics and US government agencies. More writers are needed to overhaul this topic with the vast amount of information about the prototype of typical attacks and how government agencies can detect and minimize threats by influencing everything from manufacturing to network security.

Hello! The subject of cyber attacks targeted at medical devices is very vital and of concern in today's world of evolving technology. This article needs serious overhauling. I could see that many of the citations were not from peer-reviewed sources. -- Fomanka (talk) 04:36, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
