Wrapped up a successful #defcon32 weekend where Medtronic partnered with the Biohacking Village. Our team engaged attendees with premarket versions of our Hugo™ robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) systems and next generation diabetes automated insulin delivery system.

[Chris Reed @chrreed]

Our engineering and product security teams interacted with over 2,000 attendees, including more than 90 people who attempted to defeat security on these devices. We learned so much and most importantly, we built deeper relationships with this important community.

“Being a CISO right now is like standing on lava islands while juggling radioactive lightsabers.” Worthwhile read from Daniel Meissler on the potential rise of the Cyber-CFO and a necessary evolution to “less magic & more accounting.”

Participating in events like the @defcon @DC_BHV Biohacking Village brings value in many ways. It isn't always comfortable, but leaning into conversations that help us learn and get better is worth it. I'll admit, I was nervous a few times! #DEFCON #healthtech #cybersecurity
