The big players know it is coming and are *mostly* receptive in the collaborations around its development.  Its the smaller companies that still hold onto a "security through obscurity" mindset.

As far as OSS vs Windows as the platform: there are challenges in each. A lot of times a manufacturer will say "its runs a proprietary embedded OS" and then it turns out to be an EOL version of something like Yocto. There's a tendency to forget about maintaining linux-based devices.

Anyway- I am currently building a medical device interoperability/security lab network. I'm trying to build out the core clinical systems you would see in a hospital environment: I am currently playing with Orthanc (PACS/DICOM), but I am looking for other ( probably openehr, mirth). Does anyone any suggestions? I care less about the functionality of the systems themselves, I am more concerned I have  robust interoperability capabilities to test the medical devices.

My main sources thus far are here:

Thanks
