Manufacturing
With manufacturers more vulnerable than ever to cybercrime, do you have a strategy in place for protecting your business, customers and partners?

Why Cybersecurity is Important for Manufacturers
With the adoption of automated supply chains, otherwise known as the Industry 4.0, the risks and the severity of a cyberattack are growing exponentially. Hackers seek to find any vulnerable entry points in your Internet-facing systems to gain access to other internal systems. This allows them to attack your production line – in some cases even halting the production completely. This is why it is fundamental to regularly test your industrial systems and internet-facing systems to determine what could happen if hackers targeted them.
From automotive to energy providers, engineering to aerospace, manufacturing companies are proving to be susceptible to the latest cyber threats. A recent threat actor report revealed that one-third of all attacks were on manufacturers’ computers (Q1 2017 Kaspersky Labs).
