Arctic WolfManufacturing industry: top target of ransomware attacks

The manufacturing industry is traditionally a particularly attractive target for cyber criminals: on the one hand, there are multiple supply chain interdependencies and a potentially large attack surface; on the other hand, manufacturers are under pressure to reduce downtimes to a minimum. Because the capacities of production lines cannot be scaled at will, there is a risk of production losses that can no longer be made up for - not to mention contractual penalties, delivery bottlenecks and loss of reputation. © Arctic Wolf
