The Role of Visibility in Industrial Cybersecurity

Know exactly what’s on your network to protect it

Many manufacturers lack visibility around the assets on their industrial networks. This is a problem. If you don’t know what’s on your network, you can’t effectively secure it.

What’s more, IoT devices keep expanding as manufacturing companies embrace digital transformation; threat actors can create and take down virtual machines before being discovered - and even innocuous devices can open a door from the Internet to the network, if not monitored.

Listen to this webinar to learn from OT cybersecurity professionals Quade Nettles (Rockwell Automation) and Thierry Rouquet (Cisco):

• Challenges of network and asset visibility for manufacturers
• How visibility and industrial cybersecurity risk are linked
• Improving manufacturing network cybersecurity through asset visibility
• Common scenarios and case study examples

Strengthening Cybersecurity in Smart Manufacturing

How companies can connect facilities and protect operations

Food and beverage producers are tapping into the power of smart manufacturing at a rapidly accelerating pace. They recognize the value of connectivity and how it brings better insights into production processes, improves food safety visibility and practices, and helps to prevent or resolve food safety issues.

But this important trend also introduces new cybersecurity threats and new levels of required protection. Security threats today can be physical and digital, internal and external, malicious or unintentional. All potential threats present significant risks to food and beverage operations, brands, and the consumers they serve.

These risks must be mitigated on the path to smart manufacturing for true reliability. Learn more about our approach to smart, secure manufacturing.

Smart Manufacturing Creates Better Business Outcomes

Cybersecurity safeguards help make smart manufacturing outcomes possible

Smart manufacturing systems generate better results – more efficiency and throughput, and faster startups and product innovation, for example. With smart industrial control systems from Rockwell Automation, you can achieve smart manufacturing benefits with security in mind.

Rockwell Automation builds cybersecurity into industrial control systems, with features such as CIP Security™, the EtherNet/IP protocol, and secure network products designed for IT and OT collaboration. These security systems help safeguard ICS and network infrastructure and protect the flow of data across your plants and enterprise. When cybersecurity is built into the core of your systems, your plants can realize optimal performance with lower downtime risk from cyber incidents.

Our Infrastructure-as-a-Service capabilities can also help you leap over legacy systems, into the benefits of strong, smart and secure manufacturing – all managed by Rockwell Automation for high performance and cost efficiency.
