AAMI CR515:2025 - Cybersecurity Considerations Specific to Machine Learning-enabled Medical Devices
AAMI CR515:2025 establishes cybersecurity considerations specific to machine learning-enabled medical devices. Recognized by the FDA as a consensus standard (Recognition Number: 13-153) on December 22, 2025, the document serves as a normative reference in the Software/Informatics domain. The standard specifies security risk management requirements essential for the development and operational deployment of medical devices incorporating artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. Manufacturers should implement the specified cybersecurity controls and risk management procedures to address vulnerabilities introduced by machine learning algorithms, including model drift, adversarial attacks, and data integrity threats. The document provides manufacturers with practical guidance for integrating cybersecurity considerations throughout the device lifecycle, from initial algorithm development through post-market surveillance and model updates.

This AAMI technical information report establishes a standardized
classification system for defects identified in health software,
including software embedded in medical devices and Software as a
Medical Device (SaMD). The document defines defect categories based
on type, severity, and origin within the software development
lifecycle, enabling consistent defect tracking, root cause analysis,
and process improvement. The classification scheme supports
compliance with IEC 62304 software lifecycle requirements and FDA
quality system expectations, and is referenced in the context of
cybersecurity vulnerability management and postmarket surveillance
activities. Currently under reaffirmation review by the AAMI SM-WG08
Software Defect Classification Working Group (as of April 2025).
