Medical Device Patent & Cybersecurity
1. Intellectual Property Protection
CUBE Medical Innovations' approach to helping you protect your ideas from unfair competition starts with making sure your company understands which type of intellectual protection is right for your idea, the laws that are in place to protect your new medical device, and the timing for successful implementation of each IP protection.
2. Cybersecurity
In the era of ransomware and business compromise scams, we take the security of your intellectual property seriously. At CUBE Medical Innovations, we maintain periodic functionality updates during the development life cycle of your medical device requiring electronics. Our goal? To address every possible threat vector hackers may exploit. We also verify that important encryption and authentication controls don't interfere with product functionality.
Intellectual Property Protection for Medical Device Development
As a medical device developer, the second stage of the product development cycle is crucial to making sure your idea is secure from duplication. The design and functionality of the medical device, any new manufacturing processes, the composition of the material, and any images or other graphical combinations will all need intellectual property (IP) protection through more than just a medical device patent. These proprietary features of your innovative medical device require different legal directives and different forms of protection during each stage from product development to product launch.
- Design Patents
- Utility Patents
- Trademark Protection
- Copyright Protection
- Trade Secret Protection
CUBE Medical Innovations' approach to helping you protect your ideas from unfair competition starts with making sure your company understands which type of intellectual protection is right for your idea, the laws that are in place to protect your new medical device, and the timing for successful implementation of each IP protection. Some of these protections will have distinct advantages towards the success of your business plan - while others may actually present a drawback.
Our goal is to remove any legal confusion surrounding the IP protection documentation and legal process and to prevent any obstacles that may hamper the successful protection of your ideas and inventions. While optimum protection is the goal, our experience with medical device patent requirements and cybersecurity is that different types of devices will require a different approach to intellectual property protections. For example, an implantable product will demand a different process and types of IP protection versus a sensor or analytical device.
Cybersecurity Within the Development Life Cycle
Not only does our team prioritize the importance of your medical device patent for intellectual property protection, but we also dedicate attention to medical device cybersecurity. As many medical devices are vulnerable to cybersecurity breaches with increasing connectivity to the internet and other networks, it is vital that we dedicate a stage of our medical device product development process to risk assessment and reduction.
Data breaches in the medical industry are increasing with the rise of medical technology, and combating this trend is essential for both physician and patient safety. While a compromised medical device could expose the inner workings of a healthcare provider’s network, it could also put the patient at risk of unauthorized adjustments to medical regimens and data and could ultimately be life threatening.
Our experts at CUBE Medical Innovations mitigate these threats by identifying any vulnerabilities or hazards in the medical device cybersecurity to address the areas that require the most protection. We remain vigilant throughout the medical device development process, exploring potential threats on the product side as well as possible breaches between the medical device and its form of healthcare network connection.
Don't overlook the importance of intellectual property protections and allow years of research and development to end in an unfortunate set of consequences.
CUBE Medical Innovations' expertise is in the seamless delivery of your medical device from the acquisition of your medical device patent, to cybersecurity assessment and enhancements, to your final product launch. We use proven methods that leverage our resources and connections to keep the final sales and marketing of your invention on track and on time.
