OT Cybersecurity in the Manufacturing Industry

Manufacturing is embedded within the supply chains of multiple critical infrastructure sectors including healthcare, energy, and transportation.

As a result, manufacturers are an attractive target for nation-state actors motivated by a desire to cause harm or steal intellectual property as well as for criminals seeking financial gain. The potential consequences of ICS compromise in a manufacturing plant are severe. They include damage to IT and OT systems, physical damage to plants, danger to employee health and safety, downtime, harm to those downstream in the supply chain, and loss of product reliability and integrity.

IT networks in the manufacturing sector are currently among the most likely to be compromised. Manufacturing ranked fourth among industries experiencing the greatest number of data breaches in 2019—just after retail, finance, and hospitality.
