Researchers have proposed a device that would stop anyone from hacking your pacemaker.
Consider the pacemaker. A marvel of modern technology, the pacemaker uses electric pulses to regulate a person's heartbeat. The latest generation of pacemakers, though, do even more than that. In addition to their direct medical function, the latest pacemakers also have wireless connections enabling them to transmit information for doctors to analyze. And they can receive signals in turn, enabling doctors to non-invasively alter a treatment regimen.
