Manufacturing

A cyberattack on a manufacturer can be devastating. Production line disruptions, intellectual property theft and disrupted supply chains lead to reputation damage and significant financial losses. Proactive manufacturing cybersecurity measures are crucial for protecting your operations.

Challenges

Supply Chain:
Vulnerabilities in interconnected networks pose threats like data breaches and disruptions, impacting operations and security.

Old & New Tech:
Legacy IT and operational technology pose security risks, while adopting new tech like AI and automation introduces new complexities and vulnerabilities.

Talent Shortages:
The cyber talent shortage in manufacturing prevents effective security against evolving threats, leaving companies vulnerable to attacks.

Our Solution

24/7 Managed Security Operations for Operational Continuity:

Manufacturing companies often face cyber threats that can disrupt production lines or compromise intellectual property. With 24/7 Managed Security Operations, manufacturers can continuously monitor and respond to security incidents in real-time. AI and automation-driven virtual SOC analysts rapidly detect and mitigate threats, reducing downtime and potential damage. If automated systems can’t resolve an issue, the UK-based Managed SOC team provides critical human intervention to ensure business continuity, helping protect the manufacturing process, supply chain integrity, and sensitive design data from cyberattacks.

Comprehensive Security Posture Assessment for Industrial Cybersecurity:

Manufacturers must understand the vulnerabilities in both their IT and operational technology (OT) systems. A Security Posture Assessment helps evaluate the entire digital and industrial landscape, identifying gaps in cybersecurity and providing actionable insights. This proactive approach strengthens defense mechanisms, ensuring the protection of valuable intellectual property, critical systems, and sensitive production data. By addressing these vulnerabilities, manufacturers can secure their operations against cyber threats that could disrupt production or cause safety risks, while also ensuring compliance with industry-specific standards and regulations.

CISO Advisory Services for Strategic Cybersecurity Guidance:

Many manufacturers may not have the in-house expertise or resources to hire a full-time CISO to protect their complex operations. CISO-as-a-Service offers manufacturers access to experienced cybersecurity advisors who provide leadership in protecting critical assets and optimizing security posture. These advisors help identify risks, develop cybersecurity strategies, and ensure compliance with regulations, offering tailored solutions to safeguard both IT infrastructure and OT environments. By outsourcing this expertise, manufacturers can enhance their resilience to cyber threats without the expense of a full-time CISO.
