Cybersecurity readiness

Submission‑ready cybersecurity, fast.

I deliver complete 510(k) cybersecurity documentation and close the gaps that block review. Hands‑on engineering, not checklists.

Documentation package

  • SBOM with traceable components and versions.
  • Threat model tied to system architecture and use environment.
  • Security risk management with mitigations and residual risk rationale.
  • Architecture description built for cybersecurity review.
  • SW96:2023 conformance mapped and cross‑referenced.

Best used when

  • Submission is close and cybersecurity is the blocker.
  • Artifacts are thin, inconsistent, or not FDA‑ready.
  • You need senior help to close gaps quickly.
