APPLICATION OF RISK MANAGEMENT FOR IT-NETWORKS
INCORPORATING MEDICAL DEVICES –
Part 2-8: Application guidance – Guidance on standards for
establishing the security capabilities identified in IEC TR 80001-2-2
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. However, a
technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report when it has collected
data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard, for
example "state of the art".
IEC 80001-2-8, which is a technical report, has been prepared by subcommittee 62A:
Common aspects of electrical equipment used in medical practice, of IEC technical committee
62: Electrical equipment in medical practice, and ISO technical committee 215: Health

INTRODUCTION
The IEC 80001-1 standard, the Application of risk management to IT-networks incorporating
medical devices, provides the roles, responsibilities and activities necessary for RISK
MANAGEMENT. IEC TR 80001-2-2, the Application of risk management for IT-networks
incorporating medical devices – Part 2-2: Guidance for the disclosure and communication of
medical device security needs, risks and controls is a technical report that provides additional
guidance in relation to how SECURITY CAPABILITIES might be referenced (disclosed and
discussed) in both the RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS and stakeholder communications and
agreements. This technical report provides guidance for the establishment of each of the
SECURITY CAPABILITIES presented in IEC TR 80001-2-2.
IEC TR 80001-2-2 contains an informative set of common, descriptive SECURITY CAPABILITIES
intended to be the starting point for a security-centric discussion between the vendor and
purchaser or among a larger group of stakeholders involved in a MEDICAL DEVICE IT-NETWORK
project. Scalability is possible across a range of different sizes of RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATIONS
(henceforth called healthcare delivery organizations – HDOs) as each evaluates RISK using
the SECURITY CAPABILITIES and decides what to include or not to include according to their RISK
tolerance and available resources. This documentation can be used by HDOs as input to their
IEC 80001 PROCESS or to form the basis of RESPONSIBILITY AGREEMENTS among stakeholders.
Other IEC 80001 technical reports will provide step-by-step guidance in the RISK MANAGEMENT
PROCESS. IEC TR 80001-2-2 SECURITY CAPABILITIES encourage the disclosure of more detailed
SECURITY CONTROLS. This technical report identifies SECURITY CONTROLS from key security
standards which aim to provide guidance to a RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION when adapting the
framework outlined in IEC TR 80001-2-2.
The framework outlined in IEC TR 80001-2-2 requires shared responsibility between HDOs
and MEDICAL DEVICE manufacturers (MDMs). Similarly, this guidance applies to both
stakeholders, as a shared responsibility, to ensure safe MEDICAL DEVICE IT networks. In order
to build a secure MEDICAL DEVICE IT network a joint effort from both stakeholders is required.
A SECURITY CAPABILITY, as defined in IEC TR 80001-2-2, represents a broad category of
2)
technical, administrative and/or organizational SECURITY CONTROLS required to manage RISKS
to confidentiality, integrity, availability and accountability of data and systems. This document
presents these categories of SECURITY CONTROLS prescribed for a system and the operational
environment to establish SECURITY CAPABILITIES to protect the confidentiality, integrity,
availability and accountability of data and systems. The SECURITY CONTROLS support the
maintenance of confidentiality and the protection from malicious intrusion that might lead to
compromises in integrity or system/data availability. The SECURITY CONTROLS for each
3)
SECURITY CAPABILITY can be added to as the need arises . Controls are intended to protect
both data and systems but special attention is given to the protection of both PRIVATE DATA
and its subset called HEALTH DATA.
In addition to providing a basis for discussing RISK and respective roles and responsibilities
toward RISK MANAGEMENT, this report is intended to supply:
a) Health Delivery Organizations (HDOs) with a catalogue of management, operational and
administrative SECURITY CONTROLS to maintain the EFFECTIVENESS of a SECURITY CAPABILITY
for a MEDICAL DEVICE on a MEDICAL DEVICE IT-NETWORK;
b) MEDICAL DEVICE manufacturers (MDMs) with a catalogue of technical SECURITY CONTROLS
for the establishment of each of the 19 SECURITY CAPABILITIES.
___________
2)
For the purpose of consistency throughout this report, the term SECURITY CONTROLS refers to the technical,
administrative and organizational controls/safeguards prescribed to establish SECURITY CAPABILITIES.
3)
The selection of SECURITY CAPABILITIES and SECURITY CONTROLS will vary due to the diversity of MEDICAL DEVICE
products and context in relation to environment and INTENDED USE. Therefore, this technical report is not
intended as a “one size fits all” solution.

This report presents the 19 SECURITY CAPABILITIES, their respective “requirement goal” and
“user need” (identical to that in IEC TR 80001-2-2) with a corresponding list of SECURITY
CONTROLS from a number of security standards. The security standards used for mapping

SECURITY CONTROLS to SECURITY CAPABILITIES include :
• NIST SP 800-53, Revision 4, Recommended Security Controls for Federal Information
Systems and Organizations
NIST Special Publication 800-53 covers the steps in the RISK MANAGEMENT Framework
that address SECURITY CONTROL selection for federal information systems in accordance
with the security requirements in Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 200.
This includes selecting an initial set of baseline SECURITY CONTROLS based on a FIPS 199
worst-case impact analysis, tailoring the baseline SECURITY CONTROLS, and supplementing
the SECURITY CONTROLS based on an organizational assessment of RISK. The security rules
cover 17 areas including access control, incident response, business continuity, and
disaster recoverability.
• ISO IEC 15408-2:2008, Information technology – Security techniques – Evaluation criteria
for IT security – Part 2: Security functional components
This standard defines the content and presentation of the security functional requirements
to be assessed in a security evaluation using ISO IEC 15408. It contains a comprehensive
catalogue of predefined security functional components that will fulfil the most common
security needs of the marketplace. These are organized using a hierarchical structure of
classes, families and components, and supported by comprehensive user notes.
This standard also provides guidance on the specification of customized security
requirements where no suitable predefined security functional components exist.
• ISO IEC 15408-3:2008, Information technology – Security techniques – Evaluation criteria
for IT security – Part 3: Security assurance components
This standard defines the assurance requirements of the evaluation criteria. It includes the
evaluation assurance levels that define a scale for measuring assurance for component
targets of evaluation (TOEs), the composed assurance packages that define a scale for
measuring assurance for composed TOEs, the individual assurance components from
which the assurance levels and packages are composed, and the criteria for evaluation of
protection profiles and security targets.
This standard defines the content and presentation of the assurance requirements in the
form of assurance classes, families and components and provides guidance on the
organization of new assurance requirements. The assurance components within the
assurance families are presented in a hierarchical order.

APPLICATION OF RISK MANAGEMENT FOR IT-NETWORKS
INCORPORATING MEDICAL DEVICES –
Part 2-8: Application guidance – Guidance on standards for
establishing the security capabilities identified in IEC TR 80001-2-2
1 Scope
This part of IEC 80001, which is a Technical Report, provides guidance to Health Delivery
Organizations (HDOs) and MEDICAL DEVICE manufacturers (MDMs) for the application of the
framework outlined in IEC TR 80001-2-2. Managing the RISK in connecting MEDICAL DEVICES to
IT-NETWORKS requires the disclosure of security-related capabilities and RISKS.
IEC TR 80001-2-2 presents a framework for this disclosure and the security dialog that
surrounds the IEC 80001-1 RISK MANAGEMENT of IT-NETWORKS. IEC TR 80001-2-2 presents an
informative set of common, descriptive security-related capabilities that are useful in terms of
gaining an understanding of user needs. This report addresses each of the SECURITY
CAPABILITIES and identifies SECURITY CONTROLS for consideration by HDOs and MDMs during
RISK MANAGEMENT activities, supplier selection, device selection, device implementation,
operation etc.
It is not intended that the security standards referenced herein are exhaustive of all useful
standards; rather, the purpose of this technical report is to identify SECURITY CONTROLS, which
exist in these particular security standards (listed in the introduction of this technical report),
that apply to each of the SECURITY CAPABILITIES.
This report provides guidance to HDOs and MDMs for the selection and implementation of
management, operational, administrative and technical SECURITY CONTROLS to protect the
confidentiality, integrity, availability and accountability of data and systems during
development, operation and disposal.
All 19 SECURITY CAPABILITIES are not required in every case and the identified SECURITY
CAPABILITIES included in this report should not be considered exhaustive in nature. The
selection of SECURITY CAPABILITIES and SECURITY CONTROLS should be based on the RISK
EVALUATION and the RISK tolerance with consideration for protection of patient SAFETY, life and
health. INTENDED USE, operational environment, network structure and local factors should
also determine which SECURITY CAPABILITIES are necessary and which SECURITY CONTROLS
most suitably assist in establishing that SECURITY CAPABILITY.
