Leadership

Our management team

Medcrypt is obsessed with medical device cybersecurity, and that's reflected by the team we have put together.

Our values

Purpose, impact, and practical partnership.

New technology comes with both risks and rewards. Our team is motivated by our purpose to improve health, and our mission of impact at scale. As a high-performing team with big ambitions, we expect a lot of ourselves and of our customers.

Customer code of conduct

Respect everyone

The best innovations come from diverse teams. Medcrypters have a wide range of perspectives and experiences and we deeply respect the knowledge, skills, ideas, and capabilities each employee brings.

Earn trust

We earn the trust of our partners by providing realistic, practical, and evidence-based cybersecurity solutions and counsel. There is not always an easy answer and we value honesty above all else.

Be partners

We strive to offer a “customer-first” approach. Our success is contingent upon partnership with medical device manufacturers to bring new healthcare technology to market.

Be practical

We provide evidence-based risk assessments and practical recommendations tailored to the product lifecycle stage of our partners’ devices, thus ensuring progress towards our shared goal: bringing innovative medical devices to market at scale.

Take a healthcare-first approach

Our cybersecurity experts are deeply ingrained in the healthcare industry because regulatory constraints require a healthcare-first approach, meaning clinical functionality, patient safety, and care delivery are always the highest priority.

Be confident and humble

We know medical device security is a challenging problem. We are working hard to take on big challenges, but know that solving this problem is an incremental process. The steps we are taking will create the future of medical devices.

Our culture

Built by a team from all backgrounds.

Medcrypters come from a wide range of backgrounds, and that shows in how we work: sharper decisions, more creative solutions, and a culture people are proud to be part of.

We hold ourselves to a DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging) standard in how we treat each other every day.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging

Medcrypt is for everyone.

We stand against racism, sexism, ageism, ableism, religious intolerance, transphobia, homophobia, and every other form of oppression - in what we say and in what we do. Everyone here can show up as themselves, ask questions, and raise issues without fear.

That shows up in practice: a people-first way of working, and initiatives that build awareness of inequities and hold us accountable.

How we contribute

Supporting research that moves device security forward.

Kansas State University partnership

We’ve partnered with Kansas State University to finance development of a customizable and scalable platform that integrates qualitative and quantitative metrics to provide actionable and prioritized recommendations to address current and future technological, regulatory, and business risks. These findings will be disseminated to provide a foundation that others can build on, and Medcrypt will integrate this research into our cybersecurity solutions, helping medical device manufacturers reduce cybersecurity risks and meet regulatory requirements, ensuring that they’re focusing on fixing the most exploitable cybersecurity issues that have the biggest impact on patient and operator safety, which leads to increased trust between healthcare providers, patients, and the technology we all rely on.

Press release

Tufts University partnership

We’ve also financed a fellowship with Tufts University to focus on medical device security and threat modeling. Although threat modeling is an essential component of the Secure Product Development Framework (SPDF) and processes and has been shown by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) to result in more secure devices, 49% of device makers do not follow guidance to mitigate or reduce security risks. This research will focus on identifying common gaps in device threat models and support the development of new guidance and tools to help medical device manufacturers ensure that their devices are secure, working towards the goal of reliable, repeatable, and effective threat modeling.
