Blue Goat Cyber
Startups are driving the future of healthcare, but navigating medical device cybersecurity can be overwhelming. Regulatory bodies like the FDA, EU MDR, and Health Canada now require robust security measures, and failing to meet these expectations can delay approvals, increase costs, and put patient safety at risk.

At Blue Goat Cyber, we help MedTech startups secure their devices from the start, integrating cybersecurity into product development without slowing innovation. Our premarket solutions, including penetration testing, SBOM management, threat modeling, and SAST, ensure startups meet cybersecurity expectations early, avoiding costly rework and submission delays. We provide regulatory-ready documentation to streamline the FDA submission process and address deficiencies quickly.

Cyber threats don’t stop after approval. Our postmarket cybersecurity services, such as real-time threat monitoring, patch management, and legacy device security, give startups a scalable way to maintain compliance and protect patient safety long-term.

Unlike general cybersecurity firms, we focus solely on medical devices, bringing deep regulatory expertise and fixed-fee pricing with no surprises. If a cybersecurity deficiency delays your FDA submission, we resolve it at no additional cost.

Blue Goat Cyber is your trusted partner in bringing safe, secure, and compliant medical devices to market. Let’s secure your innovation—contact us today.
