Cyber Threats
White paper: Industrial Digital Transformation
Trend Micro has published a white paper that explores industrial DX as well as the technologies used to aid this strategy, the accompanying cybersecurity challenges, and best practices on how stakeholders can collaborate to achieve business goals.
Digital transformation (DX) has been beneficial for many organisations in various industries, especially in the manufacturing industry. For factories, DX is promoted to improve productivity and efficiency to help businesses survive in the intensifying global competition. Some of the benefits of using DX including greater visualisation of operations, predictive maintenance, and mass customisation. The introduction of cloud, private 5G, and DevOps in manufacturing has also added to the benefits of DX. However, as with any new technology, these changes within a manufacturing environment come with their own set of cybersecurity challenges.
This whitepaper explores industrial DX as well as the technologies used to aid this strategy, the accompanying cybersecurity challenges, and best practices on how stakeholders can collaborate to achieve business goals while mitigating cybersecurity risks. This study would also benefit those working for planning industrial DX and have concerns about its cybersecurity risks.
