  1. Cyber Training Will Boost Security Posture

    With ongoing attacks occurring via IIoT, digitalization and AI, more and more workers at all levels – from security practitioners to OT users – need training to understand what they should or should not do.

  2. Securing Packaged Systems

    It is easy to think a main control system is secure in a brownfield or greenfield facility. After all, with all the design requirements and connections coming into the DCS, vendors have that all figured out way ahead of time. But what about the packaged systems – or skids – that connect to main...

  3. AI Boosts Functional Safety

    Facing a serious crunch of safety experts leaving the manufacturing industry and not enough coming in to fill the void, and add in a complex and more connected digital environment, the sector could use a technological boost. Artificial intelligence could be the answer.

  4. Safety Services Provide an Answer

    We are going through an advancing digital age, no one can deny that. Data is coming at workers from all directions. There is great knowledge in that data, but who has the time to sort through it, after all, we have to keep making product and keep the process moving safe and sound. For safety and...

  5. Solution for the OT Safety Brain Drain

    It’s a fact, manufacturing as a whole is losing more and more workers every day. Now add to that the rise in experienced safety professionals getting ready to retire and leave the industry, it is easy to fear that exodus of quality experience. But the key questions are can companies fill the…

  6. Understanding Consequence-based Risk

    When it comes to cybersecurity it has always been about what threats are you facing, or what kinds of vulnerabilities are imminent. Threats and vulnerabilities are something you need to be aware of and protect against, the reality is if you don’t know the consequence or if there is no consequence...

  7. Value of SCADA Informed Prevention

    It is a tried and true scenario in the industrial environment, where Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition or SCADA systems can run for 20, 30, even 40 years. With these aging, but productive legacy systems created before cybersecurity was even a thought, it is hard to imagine how anyone can...

  8. How to Protect Removable Media from Ongoing Attacks

    Use of removable media in the industrial sector today is continuing to grow and it is just as vulnerable now as it has been over the past five to ten years. A new report is out that analyzes USB-borne malware and some of the results are very interesting.

  9. Reduce Risk to People and Industrial Assets with ISA/IEC 62443

    People, process and technology are three critical components to any security program. When they all are working and in sync, everything comes together in a perfect harmony – and systems stay safe and secure and up and running.

  10. Applying ISAIEC 62443 Can Boost Defense in Depth

    To create a secure manufacturing enterprise, you need to apply defense in depth. That means at a very basic level, if a threat actor is able to get through one level of defense, there are plenty more for them to wade through. A solid defense in depth program can truly halt an attack or really…

  11. Launching an ISA/IEC 62443-driven Cybersecurity Program

    Most industrial firms lack a firm foundation of cybersecurity protection. Bad actors are on the rise and are constantly revising their attack tactics. Learn the best way to start a new journey along the ISA/IEC 62443 protection pathway.

  12. How Managed Security Services Can Bridge the Cybersecurity Talent Gap

    Managed security services. Years ago, the mere thought of an outside organization watching over a manufacturing enterprise and ensuring the site was free and clear and not under attack would have been considered outrageous. Throw in increased connectivity and a shortage of cybersecurity talent…

  13. From Incident to Regulation: TSA Pipeline Regulations

    There is no doubt the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack was a watershed incident for the oil and gas sector. As a result, the Transportation Security Administration released a prescriptive set of regulations for owners and operators of pipelines and LNG facilities which were very rigid. Then in...

  14. Value of Managed Security Services

    Manufacturing’s mantra these days is everyone needs to keep the process moving – and that means security can’t get in the way. But at the same time, you want to make sure you keep the bad guys out. No easy task. Add on top of that, an expanding attack surface due to digitalization and a lack of...

  15. Resiliency in Cybersecurity

    There is no doubt attacks are becoming more targeted and more sophisticated toward OT, which means companies need to think how they can find an attack and remain as resilient as possible so they can keep operating. This way you don’t have to hear a company say they had to “shut down operations…

  16. Knowledge is Power

    Today, attackers learn from infiltrating systems and glean as much knowledge and capabilities as possible to where they may know the system they are attacking better than the victim. However, with the right technology and the right people behind that technology, it is possible to see an attack...

  17. Digitalization and Safety

    No one will deny this is the age of digitalization across the manufacturing industry. You see it everywhere. Connectivity continues to grow and organizations are working to enjoy the benefits new age digital tools continue bring to the table. What is interesting, though, is while manufacturing...

  18. Industry 5.0 and Safety

    Industry 4.0 – or digitalization – is purely a technology-driven initiative brought together essentially to increase productivity and boost profitability. Oftentimes, though, when technology enters the picture, user reluctance and hesitation often follows shortly behind. Add in the proven-in-use,...

  19. Sustainability and Safety

    It is no secret global warming is continuing to grow and present a problem for the world. It is also no secret the manufacturing sector is a large contributor to this world-wide issue. As the industry heads toward a lofty, but achievable goal of carbon neutrality, safety can play a vital role.

  20. Energy Transition and Safety

    Clean energy is the mandate for all companies in all sectors across the globe. And that means the transition to greener and cleaner energy sources is at the forefront of manufacturers’ discussions these days. What does that energy transition mean for safety professionals?
