Environmental sustainability is more important than ever before for organizations across all sectors. Sustainability concerns including geopolitics, future-focused developments, advanced ESG reporting, and building sustainability into supply chains going forward are all significant trends shaping businesses in 2023 and beyond. While the shift towards environmental sustainability is a worthy pursuit no matter the industry, the trend towards adopting new technologies that provide more sustainability and eco-friendliness can have some unintended consequences on the realm of cybersecurity. Today we can see many hybrid endeavors that combine both cutting-edge technology and green, eco-friendly initiatives to create long-term ecologically sustainable solutions for businesses in all fields. But since these collaborations tend to utilize new technology, they may not provide the kind of advanced-level cybersecurity protocols needed to secure these endeavors against cyberattacks, resulting in unintended consequences: an increase in cyber vulnerabilities. In this article, we will take an in-depth look at the enhanced cybersecurity risks presented by certain sustainability and tech initiatives. Then we will explore best practices intended to keep businesses cyber secure as they transition to new, more environmentally friendly modes of operation and production. 1. The unexpected cybersecurity risks of going green While new green technology rollouts provide highly visible, obvious benefits, contributing to the important global cause of sustainability, the cybersecurity underpinnings that run in the background are easy to ignore but no less significant. There is a subtle interdependence between new green tech and expanded cybersecurity risks. 2. New developments in green technology New developments in green technology are vast and wide-ranging, offering revolutionary potential to cut down on harmful greenhouse gas emissions. By some estimates, Green IT can contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by ten times more than it emits. Green coding focuses on creating more energy efficient modes of engaging computational power that can be applied to everything from virtual reality gaming devices in development to cloud computing. Sustainable data collection centers aim to reduce carbon and greenhouse gas emissions by finding alternative methods of collecting data that require less energy. Smart city technology, such as IoT-enabled power grids, smart parking meters, and smart traffic controls, can utilize predictive capabilities to ensure that urban infrastructures are running at optimal energy levels, reducing resource and energy waste and improving city living experiences. Similarly, smart HVAC systems can respond to global climate change issues by managing the internal temperature of buildings using smart regulators that reduce energy waste and carbon emissions, while still heating or cooling buildings. All of these innovations are building towards a more sustainable future by reducing our need for harmful fossil fuel consumption, managing power usage across the energy grid, and creating more sustainable alternatives to existing technologies for transportation, waste management, entertainment, and more. But each of these new technologies also presents a broader risk level |
