ManuSec USA Assembles its Largest Cast Yet to Discuss the US’ Critical Manufacturing Industries
ManuSec USA returns to Chicago October 8-9th for a conference dedicated to dissecting the challenges, worries and solutions facing the USA’s manufacturing industries. With a delegation of over 100+ IT and OT senior security experts in attendance, the 2-day conference provides attendees with an unmissable program of case studies, keynote sessions, debates and networking time with thought-leaders from the FMCG, Heavy Industry, Automotive, Chemical, Oil & Gas and Aerospace industries.
As the paradigm shifts with Industry 4.0, inter-connected cyber-physical systems have become more commonplace as has the risk associated with it. The belief in this risk is shared within the sector itself as over three quarters, 65% of companies believe their that ICS security risks are more likely with IoT and for those that have been the victim of at least one ICS cybersecurity incident, 20% say the financial damage to their business has increased. ManuSec USA provides the platform for experts to directly address these worries.
This year’s key themes include the digital transformation of critical manufacturing, uses of predictive analytics & forecasted sales models, digital manufacturing, design & distributed manufacturing, risk mitigation in the supply chain, and creating an enterprise-wide cybersecurity culture – Gabe Authier, Director of Product Management at Tripwire joins the lineup as speaker for the Official Keynote and gives his talk on the ‘Next Generation Visibility for Industrial Cyber Risks: Beyond Active vs. Passive Monitoring’.
In his talk, he presents a next-generation approach to collection critical raw data from industrial networks, exploring various non-obtrusive techniques to help identify, mitigate and remediate cyber events from vulnerabilities to equipment failure. He joins other senior speakers like Christopher Blauvelt, Global Enablement Engineer for Operational Technology at Fortinet and Yariv Lenchner, Director of Product Management at Indegy, amongst others for a dynamic conference dedicated to the effects of industrial cyber risks and how to best prevent them.
