Protecting Against 'Dormant Footholds' and Knowing You're a Target
Manage episode 350970745 series 3352216
There’s a reason the term industrial-grade is used to express the highest levels of reliability and durability for products. After all, if a material, technology or tool can handle the rigors and demands of manufacturing, chances are it can meet the needs of any other application.
We’ve been through these facts before, but they’re worth repeating. IBM has cited manufacturing as the number one target for cyberattacks. The FBI is expecting a 400 percent increase in phishing attacks. The average ransomware attack demand has nearly tripled in the last two years. It’s fair to say that these attacks will continue to get more complex and occur even more frequently.
So, the strategies and software successfully implemented by manufacturing could serve as a model for countless other industries, institutions and individuals to emulate.
One of the companies looking to enhance all these vitally essential cybersecurity protocols for the most important sector of our global economy is Rockwell Automation. And joining us today from Rockwell is Quade Nettles, Cybersecurity Product Manager at Rockwell Automation.
