2022-08-09 10:00:00 | Are SASE and Zero Trust the key for manufacturers grappling with IoT cyber risks? (lien direct) | As manufacturers dash headlong into smart factory initiatives, the number of IoT devices operating in factories, warehouses, and across supply chain infrastructure is exploding. Manufacturers seek to utilize IoT in a range of places, be it video camera inspection devices on the assembly line, temperature sensors on refrigeration units, or maintenance telemetry sensors on factory equipment. But as they seek to reap tremendous business gains from smart devices in industrial IoT, they also must balance that upside with the potential risks that IoT is increasingly introducing to manufacturing environments. New cyber challenges are arising in the face of this explosion of IoT in manufacturing. They require organizations in this sector to design modern security architecture that can meet them head on. Smart manufacturing and the rise in IoT Consensus across recent industry studies shows that manufacturers are making big bets on smart manufacturing and IoT as the lynchpins to their success in the coming years. According to Deloitte’s 2022 Manufacturing Industry Outlook, some 45% of manufacturing executives expect increases in operational efficiency from investments in IoT that connects machines and automates processes. Meantime, the State of Smart Manufacturing report published in 2022 by Plex found that 83% of manufacturers say that smart manufacturing is a key to their organization’s future success. Smart devices and IIoT are among the most used projects to bring smart manufacturing to fruition. Some 49% of organizations have already deployed smart devices and 45% have put IIoT into production, with another 35% and 36%, respectively, planning to use these technologies. This is rapidly pushing a lot of manufacturing compute out to the edge. AT&T’s own recent analysis for the AT&T Cybersecurity Insights Report: Securing the Edge-A Focus on Manufacturing study found that the manufacturing vertical is one of the furthest along in implementing edge use cases. The report reveals that 78% of manufacturers globally are planning, have partially, or have fully implemented an edge use case - that’s ahead of energy, finance, and healthcare industry organizations. This kind of progress noted by the report is in sync with other industry studies watching the progress of digital transformation in manufacturing. For example, a study by Palo Alto Networks says the demand for secure remote access in manufacturing is rapidly outstripping other industries. Amid many cited edge use cases such as smart warehousing, remote operations, and augmented maintenance, video-based inspection was the number one edge priority cited by manufacturing respondents to the AT&T Cybersecurity Insights Report . This is a prime example of how IoT is being leveraged to improve efficiency, quality and speed on factory floor, while helping manufacturers also overcome workforce challenges. Unpatchable IoT devices raises manufacturing risk profile Video-based inspection also provides an excellent example of how IoT devices can at the same time potentially increase cyber risk in manufacturing environments. In use cases like this one, IoT devices such as cameras are increasingly connected to OT networks and devices on the manufacturing shop floor. Simultaneously, they’re also opening up access outside th | Threat Studies Patching Guideline | Deloitte |
