Data security challenges in the manufacturing industry

 

The ransomware scare

From Boeing to Foxconn Electronics, ransomware remains a major concern for manufacturers worldwide, with losses exceeding a staggering $17 billion between 2018 and 2024.

 

Seemingly innocuous insiders

Trade secrets, patents, and design blueprints are among prized assets sought after by attackers. Insiders with access could leak them, either inadvertently or illicitly.

 

Industry 4.0 digital transition

The convergence of IT and Operational Technology has driven a surge in cybercrime, with 80% of manufacturing respondents reporting more breaches or security incidents in the past year.

Build robust data security with DataSecurity Plus

  • Construct a sensitive data inventory

    Discover where your trade secrets, proprietary information, patents, and other organizational data reside, and classify them into categories such as restricted, public, and sensitive to enable content-aware protection.

  • Assess your access controls

    Review whether the principle of least privilege is maintained to ensure your organization's design blueprints, customer details, financial reports, and other sensitive information are accessible only to authorized users.

  • Prevent the theft of intellectual property

    Continuously monitor how authorized users exercise their permissions over intellectual property to detect transfers to publicly accessible folders, USBs, email, or the cloud. Proactively block and alert on suspicious activity to prevent data theft.

  • Unearth potential ransomware attacks

    Spot signs such as users accessing compromised applications, downloading files with ransomware-like extensions, or showing unusual file access patterns — all of which could indicate a potential ransomware attack.

  • Fortify your first line of defense

    Respond to security incidents instantly by isolating infected systems, notifying stakeholders, automating response actions, and minimizing production downtime.
