ISC2 CISSP Practice Question

A 500-bed hospital is rolling out a fleet of network-connected infusion pumps that interface with electronic health record and pharmacy systems to download drug libraries and transmit treatment logs. Because altered firmware could deliver incorrect dosages, the CISO must choose a control that best protects the integrity of the pump software while still allowing routine updates from the vendor. Which security measure BEST addresses this embedded-device risk?

  • Physical isolation from network systems

  • Requiring strong passwords changed monthly

  • Daily vulnerability scanning of devices

  • Implementing code signing for firmware updates
