Industrial cybersecurity is in a state of flux. Ransomware and sophisticated nation-state attacks are undermining confidence in conventional cybersecurity programs. Developments like remote workers, cloud apps, edge computing, and digital transformation are transforming the very nature of industrial IT and OT. Lack of comprehensive, end-to-end security strategies are overwhelming defenders with whack-a-mole efforts to address the growing number of threats. This situation is jeopardizing worker safety and the delivery of critical services in industrial plants, infrastructure systems, and smart cities.
In this opening session ARC analysts and end users will share their insights on the trends and developments occurring in industrial cybersecurity and changes in the people, processes, and technologies that will be needed to improve and maintain facility security, address sophisticated attacks, and deal with new digital transformation challenges.
Leaders and decisionmakers in IT, automation, operations, product development, business improvement, and city planning can all benefit from this program. They will gain a solid understanding of the challenges they will be facing, and the actions they can take to avoid crippling cybersecurity incidents.
