Securing the manufacturing sector with identity and access management, from machinery to market.
How IAM impacts CISOs in Manufacturing
#1
Manufacturing was the most targeted industry for cyberattacks in 2021, 2022, and 2023, according to IBM's X-Force Threat Intelligence Report. - Industry Week
85%
85% of incidents in critical infrastructure organizations (including manufacturing) could have been mitigated with basic security practices like multi-factor authentication and least-privilege principles. - Industry Week
IoT
The increasing adoption of IoT in manufacturing exposes companies to new risks including cyber-attacks, data breaches, and operational interruptions, further emphasizing the need for robust IAM. - Thales Group
Digital transformation in the world of manufacturing
IAM in manufacturing secures sensitive data, ensures regulatory compliance, and protects proprietary designs and processes. From safeguarding proprietary designs to managing complex supplier networks, a well-integrated IAM strategy drives operational efficiency and builds resilience across your entire enterprise.
With global supply chains, proprietary systems, and strict regulatory requirements, manufacturing needs more than basic access management. It's time for identity solutions that turn security into operational strength.
Your ChallengeManufacturing leaders are caught between protecting critical assets and maintaining operational speed.
With intellectual property, supply chain integrity, and operational continuity at stake, you need identity solutions that secure both virtual and physical assets without creating friction. Strong IAM security is essential, but it must never slow down production.
Challenges include:
Intellectual property protection Prevent unauthorized access to proprietary designs, processes, and blueprints, safeguarding valuable IP and competitive advantage.
Supply chain security Manage complex access requirements across suppliers and partners, securing collaboration without compromising data integrity.
Regulatory compliance Meet stringent data security standards, including ITAR and GDPR, to avoid penalties and maintain industry certifications.
Legacy equipment integration Securely integrate legacy manufacturing systems with modern IAM platforms to support digital transformation without disruptions.
Manufacturers can turn identity management into a competitive edge.
Securing today's manufacturing operations requires identity solutions that protect innovation while enabling secure collaboration. By implementing the right IAM strategy, you will streamline supplier access, safeguard production systems, and accelerate digital initiatives without compromising security.
