The Next Cyber-Attack Could Be At Your Factory
As the surface of cyber attacks changes, the security risk and need for security solutions increases. It is imperative that factories adopt a resilient posture against cyber attacks.
The question is no longer if I will be hacked, but when. Building a connected factory requires smart edge devices to be able to recover from attacks that require security implementations at the lowest level: the hardware. Being able to rely on the lowest level of booting and issuing updates to a device allows a factory to recover and resume normal operations. No operational system can be completely secure. Therefore, approaches to making security trade-offs and applying the right security features at different system levels are required. In motion control applications, securing the factory control loop requires unique schemes to authenticate devices and establish network integrity.
Jared Eldredge, Security Applications Engineer at Analog Devices, welcomes you to the presentation "The Next Cyber-Attack Could Be At Your Factory".
Date: November 26, SPS Connect - 11:40 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
