To keep up in the ultra-competitive industrial landscape, organizations must decide: replace assets altogether, or modernize them to limit the impact of aging. Industrial IoT is one solution to modernize your assets. Replace For most industrial organizations, replacing assets with state of the art machinery is not an option. While this modern machinery will deliver better […]

For factories and manufacturers, the need for cybersecurity is urgent. This is due to the concerns arising from operation stoppages caused by security incidents, resulting in loss of revenue. Unlike enterprise IT, system administrators face several issues within smart factory security, namely difficult to eliminate vulnerabilities, the spread of malware, and flat network configurations. Furthermore, […]

For many years, industrial control systems—often called “Operational Technology” or OT—have been relatively safe from cyber attacks. The control and telemetry systems used in industrial plants and manufacturing environments were typically placed on isolated or “air gapped” communication networks, and the systems themselves were based on highly specialized operating systems which were difficult to attack […]

The importance of data has changed over the years. Initially, data was just the “exhaust” from an organization’s On-Line Transactional Process (OLTP) systems. However as the volume, variety and velocity of the data grew over the past few years, the economic value of data has been transformed by the big data phenomena [1] that has […]

Today, survival of the fittest is linked not to size or strength but to the ability to change — to move quickly, adapt, seize opportunities, and be agile. In addition, competition has never been higher in manufacturing, and with more companies competing for the same customer base, differentiation is a challenge. The ability to innovate […]

Manufacturers today face a highly competitive environment with rising costs of materials and resources. The nominal price of steel, for example, has increased by 167% since the turn of the century while energy costs have climbed more than 2.5 times their prices in 2000 (1). In order to be more efficient while managing tight margins, manufacturers have begun exploring digital […]
