Industrial Cybersecurity Quick Start Guide
Smart manufacturing and smart factories depend on connectivity and data sharing to deliver benefits such as increased operating productivity and enhanced safety, as well as reduced downtime and costs. However, critical connected systems are an attractive target for cybercriminals in search of a potentially profitable opportunity to exploit.
Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems can be particularly difficult to secure. Each device added to the network creates a new potential risk. Factor in the inherent complexity of big automated systems and the fact that malicious hackers only need to find one vulnerability to gain access to the entire network potentially – and the challenge becomes clear. What may not be as easy to understand is how to mitigate these complex security issues.
A successful cyberattack is likely to have a significant negative impact on the business, which can extend to customers and the supply chain.
