Cyber Secure Networking Critical Comms
Build Secure Network Infrastructure without Compromising Production Efficiency
While companies are tapping into the opportunities that the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has to offer, digitalisation has become a key initiative for industries. Digitalisation has allowed the industrial control system (ICS) landscape to develop quickly in recent years. Originally, ICS networks were physically isolated and almost immune to cyberattacks. However, recently, there has been a rise in the sophistication of cyberattacks, which has prompted everyone from IT to OT personnel to produce solutions that enhance industrial network security. Thus, understanding network security requirements will help companies mitigate cybersecurity risks. Read on to learn more.
Secure Your Industrial Networks with OT-IT Integrated Security
With cyberattacks targeting more and more industrial networks, it is crucial to identify and mitigate system vulnerabilities before these weaknesses are exploited by those who intend to do harm. There are two directions you can take to enhance network security. One is to ensure that your industrial networks have a secure foundation–secure network infrastructure, which allows authorised traffic to flow to the correct places. Alternatively, you can identify critical assets and give them layered protection such as an industrial IPS or whitelisting control.

Moxa is Driving Cybersecurity Solutions Across Critical Infrastructure Sectors
Driven by both top-down and bottom-up forces, industrial cybersecurity solutions have become an urgent initiative in many different industries. On one hand, the growing number of cybersecurity incidents and cyberattacks on critical public infrastructure, such as power substations, oil and gas pipelines, and water treatment plants, has prompted governments around the world to implement new laws and regulations that demand stronger industrial network security. After the recent cyberattack that shocked the Australian Government, private companies and smart factories are also realizing that they are no longer immune to cyberattacks and are also taking matters into their own hands to address potential cybersecurity risks on their networks.
“This activity is targeting Australian organisations across a range of sectors, including all levels of government, industry, political organisations, education, health, essential service providers and operators of other critical infrastructure.”, says Scott Morrison regarding the cyberattack that occurred on the 19 June 2020.
Moxa secures your OT networks with OT-IT integrated security with an ongoing commitment to ensuring reliable connectivity for industrial environments, Moxa has enhanced its network security portfolio with industrial cybersecurity solutions to mitigate cyberthreats against industrial networks.
