Overview
Manufacturing and critical infrastructure are increasingly becoming digital-first environments, where every piece of machinery is closely monitored, and likely controlled, from a remote location. Everything from food and automobile manufacturing, to energy pipelines and bridges, exists on a digital network.
This convenience comes with a clear vulnerability: many black hats and nefarious cyber threats that threaten not only businesses, but supply lines critical to society and safety. They can withhold real-world assets from owners until demands are met, or even cause serious harm with a few keystrokes. These threats are using more sophisticated tools and techniques, as their goals are often supported by political or business interests.
Today’s thought leaders and industry experts are doing the critical thinking before this threat grows any further. Join them as they discuss several topics essential to industrial cybersecurity, including defense-in-depth and zero-trust strategies, as well as protection from ransomware and persistent threats. These are discussions industrial and networking engineers and security experts can’t afford to miss.
