OTTAWA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Intertek, a Total Quality Assurance provider to industries worldwide, has issued its first UL 2900-2-1 certification to medical device manufacturer NuVasive, Inc. for Pulse, the company’s integrated technology platform that enables better spine surgeries. The certification was awarded by our Intertek EWA-Canada laboratory in Ottawa.
UL 2900-2-1 is a standard for software cybersecurity that applies to the testing of network-connected components of medical devices, to assess the cybersecurity risk of the network and connectable components of healthcare and wellness systems.

Our experience with cybersecurity for medical devices ranging from surgical robots to hospital monitoring equipment helps our clients eliminate security flaws, meet regulatory requirements, and launch successful products.
Tony Walker, Global Vice President, Connected World, said: “We are very pleased to have issued our first UL2900-1 certificate to NuVasive, helping ensure its innovative surgical system against the cybersecurity risks inherent in any connected product, and so helping bring the benefits of connectivity safely to patients to this important area of medicine.
