1. What is industrial cybersecurity?
The rising need to improve the security of automated systems employed in critical infrastructure has led to the emergence of industrial cybersecurity as a professional discipline. Therefore, it is imperative to combine the experience and skills of traditional information security with automation, instrumentation, and process engineering in order to secure complex industrial processes and identify an effective response.
2. Why is ICS security important?
It is important to have an industrial cybersecurity system in place as cyberattacks on strategic industrial assets and critical infrastructure have become one of the top global risks in various industries, including the manufacturing industry. Additionally, disruption of critical operations and services costs companies millions of dollars. Therefore, to keep the critical systems functioning and running, it is essential to have an improved set of industrial cybersecurity solutions.
3. Which industries need cybersecurity?
The computing landscape is characterized by increased connectivity and data sharing between cloud-based and local applications, welcoming sophisticated analytics that can help improve performance. Similarly, technologies like the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are setting a trend that involves sharing the data they produce with connected smart devices to improve existing business models and enable new ones. However, they also increase the risk of cyber threats, including data breaches and ransomware attacks. To improve your business operations with advanced and competent technologies, it is important to have industrial cybersecurity solutions readily set in place. Healthcare, manufacturing, retail, construction, and finance are some industries that need industrial cybersecurity solutions and systems for a smooth operation.
