Title:
SECURELY AUTHENTICATING A DATA EXCHANGE SESSION WITH AN IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005091205
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system (161) and method (200) for securely authenticating a data exchange session (182) with an implantable medical device (103) is presented. A crypto key (122) uniquely associated with an implantable medical device (103) is defined to authenticate data (131) during a data exchange session (182). A secure connection (181) is established from an external source (161) with a secure key repository (163) securely maintaining the crypto key (122). Authorization to access data (131) on the implantable medical device (103) is authenticated by securely retrieving the crypto key (122) from the secure key repository (163).
