Manufacturers Are Prime Targets, And Most Aren’t Ready
As digital transformation accelerates across manufacturing, the convergence of IT and OT systems presents a growing risk. This creates blind spots that cybercriminals exploit. From outdated equipment and insecure remote access to third-party vulnerabilities, your operation faces increasing threats daily.
Key Challenges:
CMMC Compliance for Department of Defense contracts
Insecure Industrial Control Systems (ICS)
Vulnerable supplier connections
Limited visibility across IT and OT infrastructure
DoD compliance pressure for defense manufacturers
Risk of insider threats and IP theft
A Breach Can Shut Down Learning, And Trust in Your Institution
A single ransomware incident can halt instruction, compromise sensitive student records, and cause community outrage. Compliance failures can lead to audits, fines, and lost funding. Educational institutions need a cybersecurity partner who understands the stakes and responds with urgency.
