With each data breach, hack or ransomware attack that occurs, it may be easier to place blame rather than search for a better understanding of contributing factors. Whether you are staying abreast of current events or looking for better insights, join our cybersecurity professionals as they shed light on some of the many facets of cyber and information security and discuss five challenges every CIO faces.

Areas that will be covered in this session:

– Technology evolution in manufacturing, how did we get here?​
– Motivating factors
– The threat landscape for the manufacturing sector
– Cybersecurity Hygiene – what is it and why is it important

​The Five Challenges:

– What and where is our sensitive and critical data in the manufacturing environment?
– What is the “optimal” timing for applying security patches?
– What and how much do I need to do to stay compliant with IT security laws and regulations?
– How can I promote and raise awareness of cybersecurity?
– Maintaining cybersecurity is expensive

CME focuses on assisting organizations in following areas:
