Pharmaceutical companies are rapidly embracing digital transformation and innovative technologies to gain operational efficiencies. However, both automation and outsourcing increase cyber risk.

Where do the biggest security gaps lie? In the expanding threat surface created by increased connectivity between pharma’s IT, IoT, OT and cyber-physical systems.

Without visibility into your operational assets, you can’t answer three fundamental questions: what’s on your network, how are devices communicating, and is there anything connected to the internet that shouldn’t be?

To encourage more organizations to include OT and IoT assets in their security monitoring programs, we’ve released Guardian Community Edition (Guardian CE) – a free tool that provides visibility into these critical assets.

Three powerful developments are reshaping the world’s continuous OT monitoring requirements: the rapid convergence of IT/OT security, broader use of corporate SOCs and external security providers, and accelerating digital transformation.

Join ARC Advisory Group Vice President Sid Snitkin as he explores the impact each trend is having on core cyber security needs.

The mining industry is embracing digital transformation, but it comes at a cost: an increasingly connected operating environment exponentially expands the threat surface. This makes mining operations more vulnerable to cyber threats, and more difficult to protect against attacks.

Read on to learn about the three most common cyber threats facing the mining industry – and steps operators should take to deflect potential attacks.

The manufacturing environment is changing fast. Digital transformation promises substantial increases in productivity, speed and quality. Securing modern manufacturing is essential to safety and uptime.

Fortunately, guidelines such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework for Manufacturing and IEC 62443, along with advanced visibility and cyber security solutions, can help manufacturers build resiliency fast. Read on to learn how.
