One of the inescapable truths about the industrial sector is that it is usually the ultimate proving ground for product performance. When we look at some of the technologies that have created seismic social shifts, tools like operational software, wireless connectivity and numerous monitoring devices were not ready for the demanding industrial environment right away.
We tackle these issues and many others in this episode with Sam Moyer, MxD’s Lead Cybersecurity Engineer. Some of the topics we discuss include:
- The lingering (live-off-the-land) nature of many state-sponsored or hacktivist group attacks.
- Finding the right ways to prioritize cybersecurity in manufacturing, and how the industry works "in it's own time."
- The disruptive or competitive push that manufacturing is missing.
- AI, and the potential traps to avoid in eliminating too much human knowledge.
- Why manufacturers are a target because of who they work with on a regular basis.
- Improvements in landscape visibility.
- The rise in frequency of manufactures paying ransomware demands.
-Navigating the regulatory landscape, and learning from past mistakes.
