Cybersecure by Design: A Critical Shift for Smart Manufacturing
Smart manufacturing is transforming the industrial landscape, enabling unprecedented levels of efficiency, connectivity, and data-driven decision-making. However, as manufacturers rapidly digitize their operations, cybersecurity risks are expanding just as quickly. Too often, cybersecurity is treated as an afterthought—addressed only once systems are already deployed. This reactive approach is proving to be insufficient for today’s highly connected industrial environments.
