Billions of Internet-connected sensors and other devices, comprising the Internet of Things, now span the world’s manufacturing plants and logistics infrastructure. They enable remarkable efficiency and unprecedented data collection for industrial companies. However, with so many poorly secured devices in operation, Industrial IoT exposes manufacturing businesses to high levels of cyber risk.
A tiny IoT sensor exposes the business to as much risk as a large-scale server in the data centre. Once compromised, it can wreak havoc on information systems or serve as a gateway into the network for malicious actors. Security countermeasures are available for the IIOT. IoT devices need their security to be watertight. All of them should be updatable. And just as importantly, organizations need to be able to patch them as fast as possible.
