With the rise of cybercrime and data breaches, all businesses need to be prepared. Manufacturing companies are becoming more and more vulnerable as they rely on software, the cloud, and the Internet of Things (IoT) to manage and integrate data from many sources.
Northwest Industrial Resource Center (NWIRC) will host a free program, Cybersecurity 101 for Manufacturing, from 8:30 – 10 a.m. Tuesday, February 16, at the Knowledge Center, 5240 Knowledge Parkway, to review the basics.
Topics will include legal perspectives, shop floor security, prevention measures, and incident response. Presenters are: John Persinger, MacDonald Illig, Emerging Technologies Practice Group; Scott McCausland, Process and Data Automation; Jay Markey, Green Seven Technologies; and David Peck, David J. Peck & Associates, LLC.
