Why Manufacturing IT is Different
Legacy Systems, New VulnerabilitieS
As legacy PLCs and SCADA systems increasingly connect with corporate networks, they create new paths for cyber attackers. This convergence allows risks to escalate, enabling lateral movement from IT environments directly into production systems.
Downtime Equals Revenue Loss
Manufacturing downtime can lead to significant losses ranging from fifteen thousand to fifty thousand dollars every hour which cybercriminals capitalize on by demanding ransoms that focus on recovery time instead of the actual value of data. Each instance of halted production results in real revenue loss.
Compliance Demands Intensify Now
Manufacturers face a confluence of tightening compliance demands from CMMC 2.0, rigorous cyber insurance audits, and evolving AI regulations. Being audit-ready directly impacts not only contract eligibility but also insurance coverage. Ensure your business stays ahead in this challenging landscape.
