FDA 524B Clause 2025 final guidance — security architecture
Security architecture views expected in a premarket submission
FDA Cybersecurity Premarket Guidance
The FDA's June 2025 final cybersecurity guidance expects a cyber-device submission to include security architecture views — diagrams and descriptions of the device's security design from several angles. The guidance describes a global system view, a multi-patient harm view, an updateability and patchability view, and a security use-case view. Together they show a reviewer how the device is defended, how it is patched, and how a compromise could propagate.
