Résumé :	Wearable devices have revolutionized healthcare by providing innovative solutions for managing medical conditions such as urinary incontinence (UI). However, despite their effectiveness, these technologies face significant cybersecurity and data privacy concerns, particularly the protection of sensitive health information. In this paper, we examine various UI detection and prevention devices, focusing on their compliance with critical cybersecurity and privacy regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and industry standards, including ISO 13485 and ISO 27001. Our findings reveal that while some devices display certifications, such as CE marking or FDA approval, important security and compliance information are often unclear, inaccessible, or missing. To mitigate risks, manufacturers must not only secure wireless communication protocols but also prioritize transparency regarding their adherence to legal and industry requirements to safeguard user data. This study highlights the urgent need for clear guidelines on security and privacy compliance to ensure an ethical integration of wearable device technologies into UI healthcare systems, and safeguarding sensitive patient data such as UI severity, frequency of urinary leakage, and other key parameters.
