These devices are designed to save lives of people but now many of the medical devices are not properly secured and so the chances of these devices being hacked by someone increases. The hackers can hack the pacemaker if it is not secure and can give a deadly 830-volt or more jolt to a pacemaker by logging into it remotely.
