# 1. Regulatory References
**Regulatory references:**
IEC 62304, para. 5.3.1 and 5.3.2 [class B, C]
**Relevant other documentation:**
* SOP Software Development
* User needs / stakeholder requirements
* Design input / software requirements
* (...)
# 2. Software Systems
In compliance with DIN EN 62304, we subdivide our software on three levels: software systems, software
components and software units.
> Here, describe your internal software systems. The IEC 62304 defines those as an “integrated collection of
> software items organized to accomplish a specific function or set of functions.”
>
> NOTE: Ideally, you would add an illustrating diagram to the Annex and reference it here.
## 4.1. Frontend
> Enter description, for example:
>
> * Function: user interface display
> * Software safety classification and rationale
> * Runtime
> * Deployment
> * User groups
## 4.2. Backend
> Enter description, for example:
>
> * Function: managing patient data and medical images.
> * Software safety classification and rationale
> * Runtime (e.g. JVM)
> * Deployment (e.g. Docker container)
> * User group
## 4.3. Algorithm
> Enter description, for example:
>
> * Function: taking medical images as input and output a prediction.
> * Software safety classification and rationale
> * Runtime (e.g. JVM)
> * Deployment (e.g. Docker container)
> * User group
# 6. Software Units
> Describe your internal software units. The IEC 62304 defines those as a “software item [any identifiable
> part of a program, i.e. source code, object code, control code, control data, etc.] that cannot be
> subdivided into other items”. For example:
>
> * Wearable device poller (regularly checks whether wearable device has new data and downloads it)
> * Notification service (sends messages to Apple / Google for push notifications of mobile apps)
> * (...)
# 7. Database
> Describe your databases. For example:
>
> * Relational database: Postgres v14
# 8. IT Security
## 8.1. Encryption of data
\<enter content\>
### 8.1.1. Data at rest
\<enter content\>
### 8.1.2. Data in transit
> Example content:
>
> * Data in transit is encrypted with state-of-the-art encryption, e.g. SSL, TLS.
> * Additionally, we create a Virtual Private Network (VPC) which prevents the Compute Instances from being
> exposed to the public internet. The algorithm and the database are therefore not publicly reachable; they
> are only reachable by the backend.
