How IIoT Brings More Cyberattacks to the Manufacturing Industry
With an IIoT network that covers the entire enterprise and has dozens of machines connected to a centralized system, you can see why it’s so tempting for cybercriminals to attempt access on your network. On the other hand, it also shows where your weaknesses are and what you can do to protect it.
During recent years, healthcare, financial service, and retail industries were more “interesting” to cyber attackers than the manufacturing industry. As business disruption and intellectual property theft emerge, more and more manufacturers are becoming victims of cybercrime.

Boost Your Material Handling ROI via Reliable Wireless Communications
By Keith Blodorn, ProSoft Technology
In many manufacturing facilities, material handling functions from parts delivery to weighing to inventory have been automated in an effort to cut labor costs and optimize resources.
These improvements carry the promise of cost and time savings but require significant investments upfront – the average cost for a frequently used solution, an automated guided vehicle (AGV) system, can reach $1 million USD.

Make the Most of Your Electrical Control System Upgrade
An aging electrical control system can lead to unplanned downtime and safety risks. When the time comes to replace it, make sure to choose your strategy wisely.
Some companies opt to simply replace their legacy system with a newer version of the same technology. While this approach may deliver improved system reliability, shouldn’t you get more from such a major infrastructure investment?
Especially today as industrial operations become more digitized, replacing one hard-wired solution with another can leave you at a competitive disadvantage as your competitors go digital.
