The implementation of appropriate security mechanisms for an effective and efficient medical device vigilance information exchange is very important, as the system handles sensitive information. These mechanisms have to be designed in such a way that they maintain confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data of medical devices. In this paper the security aspects of the information exchange on medical device vigilance is examined in detail.
