Protecting IT and OT Resources Against Advanced Threats in Manufacturing with a Single Platform
Executive Summary
Manufacturing organizations manage expensive and sophisticated equipment at their factories—and the systems that run the machinery are increasingly being connected to the internet. The cybersecurity implications of this trend are significant, including possible threats to physical safety, and in some cases, national security. Companies strive to secure their systems while maintaining business imperatives like operational efficiency, continuity of operations, product integrity, and compliance. The Fortinet Security Fabric provides a broad, integrated, and automated security architecture that covers all aspects of the manufacturing business—from the back office to the manufacturing floor, from air-gapped systems to connected ones, from internal users to third-party partners.
