Cyber security is becoming a critical topic for industrial companies. The threats are evolving and more focus is required to ensure the security of the operational technology network. It is important to understand that physical devices, which are often buried at the bottom of the control network, may be vulnerable to attack. It is important to understand what you're up against.
350,000 new malicious programs are detected daily, adding to the 1.2 billion pieces of malware we already know about.

Network security enhancement & de-risking for analyzers
The profile of process facilities make them attractive targets
1. Distributed Systems
Facility and enterprise layouts are typically dispersed and siloed—increasing the attack surface.
2. Increased Asset Complexity
The number of connected devices is growing exponentially and older systems in particular, do not have all the correct cyber security measured built into them.
3. Increased Process Complexity
With industrial control system assets becoming more connected, previously isolated components now have greater Cyber Security risks than ever before.
4. Lack of ICS Security Visibility
Monitoring Cyber Security across operational assets is difficult to implement.
5. Labour Inefficiency
Manually retrieving and investigating logs from various sources is inefficient and unreliable making automating these process ideal essential for sustaining secure systems.
6. Inadequate Security Expertise
As the need for expertise grows, recruiting individuals with relevant Cyber Security expertise has become an industry-wide challenge.
Production losses
Environmental damage
Regulatory fines
Safety risks
Reputational damage
Not addressing cyber security increases the risk of production stops resulting in lost production
Cyber attacks on industrial plants risk releasing hazardous materials into the surrounding environment
Failure to meet international and national standards for cyber security often leads to fines and sanctions from regulating bodies
Cyber attacks on industrial and manufacturing systems put workers at risk of serious injury and death
The immeasurable impact comes from when an incident does occur. Brand equity takes years to build and seconds to destroy
