Cybersecurity   

Cybersecurity

Security architecture and secure software engineering for connected, embedded, and defence-grade systems.

Capabilities-Cybersecurity-Services

Hydrix secures complex embedded and connected systems across medical, industrial, and defence sectors. Our cybersecurity engineering is deeply integrated into product development, protecting devices from compromise while preserving performance, compliance, and user trust.

We work across the product lifecycle to identify and mitigate security risks. This includes threat modelling, secure architecture design, cryptographic integration, secure software development, and post-market surveillance strategies. Our approach supports compliance with international standards, including IEC 81001-5-1, FDA premarket cybersecurity guidance, and MDR cybersecurity requirements.

Cybersecurity Capabilities

  • Embedded security architecture
    Secure-by-design development for connected devices. We assess and define threat surfaces, enforce least-privilege principles, and establish secure boot, hardware root-of-trust, and cryptographic key management.
  • Secure firmware and software development
    Our software team implements secure coding practices, memory protection strategies, static analysis, and input validation. We address vulnerabilities early by integrating security analysis and testing into the software development lifecycle.
  • Threat modelling and risk assessment
    Systematic identification of security risks using frameworks such as STRIDE and DREAD. We assess technical, clinical, and operational risk impacts and define appropriate controls in alignment with ISO 14971 and FDA requirements.
  • Cryptographic integration and secure communications
    Implementation of hardware and software-based cryptographic methods for secure storage, authentication, and communications. We support AES, ECC, TLS, and custom protocols across embedded and connected systems.
  • Security testing and verification
    Industry best practises (such as IEC 62443) for securing against cybey threats, static and dynamic code analysis, vulnerability scanning. We assess device response to malformed inputs, communication channel integrity, and response to environmental tampering.
  • Post-market cybersecurity strategy
    Development of vulnerability disclosure procedures, software bill of materials (SBOM), patching workflows, and incident response plans. We support clients in developing documentation and evidence for regulatory submission and surveillance audits.
  • Compliance and documentation support
    We generate cybersecurity documentation aligned for example with IEC 81001-5-1, FDA guidance, IEC 60601-4-5, ISO 27001, including security risk management reports, software bills of materials, and cybersecurity assurance cases.

Integrated Product Development

Cybersecurity at Hydrix is not a bolt-on function. It is integrated from the beginning of product development. Our engineers work closely with electronics, firmware, systems, and quality teams to ensure that security requirements are mapped, implemented, and validated throughout the design lifecycle.

We support clients developing:

  • Connected medical devices with wireless telemetry
  • Portable diagnostic platforms with encrypted data pipelines
  • Industrial control systems requiring tamper resistance
  • Defence technologies with rigorous system security requirements

Why Hydrix

Our cybersecurity capability is built on real-world experience with regulated, high-consequence products. We understand the trade-offs between security, usability, and performance, and we guide clients through the complex landscape of security requirements and standards.

With Hydrix, you gain a security-conscious partner who ensures that your product is not only safe and effective, but also resilient to todays and tomorrow’s threats.
