Pure Global: Brazil's MedTech Data Shock - ANVISA's New Cybersecurity Surprise

Last week, Brazil's ANVISA implemented a sudden and strict new regulation for cybersecurity in connected medical devices. This unexpected move introduces mandatory data localization, forcing companies to store Brazilian patient data on servers within the country, creating significant technical and financial hurdles for global manufacturers. This episode of LATAM MedTech Insights unpacks the immediate impact of this new rule. We explore the specific technical requirements, the short 90-day compliance window, and what this means for companies with existing products in the market or those planning to enter Brazil's lucrative MedTech space. Imagine your state-of-the-art, cloud-powered diagnostic device, already approved in Europe and the US, is suddenly blocked from the Brazilian market. The reason is ANVISA's new data localization law, passed just last week, which makes your global cloud architecture non-compliant overnight. This is the urgent new reality facing MedTech innovators in Brazil. Key questions from this episode: - What are the three critical actions you must take to comply with ANVISA's new cybersecurity note? - How does the mandatory data localization rule affect your existing global cloud strategy? - Are there any exemptions for small-scale startups or SaMD products? - What specific encryption standards are now mandatory, and which are obsolete? - How can you update your technical dossier to prevent import delays and rejections? - What does this shift signal for the rest of the Latin American market?
