Abstract
According to some embodiments, a system for securing communications between an implantable wearable medical device (IWMD) and an external device (ED) is disclosed. The system includes a wireless radio frequency (RF) channel configured for communication between the IWMD and the ED. The system further includes a vibration-based side channel configured for verifying communication between the IWMD and the ED such that the RF channel is activated only when the IWMD detects a vibration signal generated by an ED.
