Кибербезопасность становится ключевым фактором для достижения углеродной нейтральности в промышленности

Topics of the Day Podcast Breaking News There is an unsung hero these days that remains a steady but sure backbone as digitalization continues its march forward allowing for unprecedented growth and productivity in the manufacturing sector – cybersecurity. It is no secret global warming is continuing to grow and present a problem for the world. It is also no secret the manufacturing sector is a large contributor to this world-wide dilemma, however, as the industry heads toward a lofty, but achievable goal of carbon neutrality, safety can play a vital role. FOCAL POINTS INCIDENTS Cisco Fixes Multiple RoomOS Issues Cisco’s RoomOS engineering team conducted a comprehensive internal security review which resulted in a software hardening release that addresses multiple internally discovered vulnerabilities. OT Advisories Siemens Fixes SICAM 8 Siemens has an update available to handle active debug code, initialization of a resource with an insecure default, and unverified password change vulnerabilities in its SICAM 8, according to a report with CISA. COMPANY/PRODUCT NEWS FoodProtect for Food, Worker Safety Safety Products Global (SPG) launched the FoodProtect Series, a controlled cutting system purpose-built for food processing and manufacturing facilities. GOVERNMENT How to Develop a Vulnerability Disclosure Program Software manufacturers and online service providers operating web services have internal teams that identify and address security vulnerabilities before releasing their products. VIEWS Not Cold Statistics, But Real People that Died on the Job Ben Morrissey and Max Morrissey surely came into work September 20, 2022, with the usual thoughts on their minds like what do we have to do today to keep things up and running, what can I learn, is there any nonsense I have to deal with at the office? That kind of thing. TRAINING & CERTIFICATION University Gains Cybersecurity Certification The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee earned Level 1 Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) and is accelerating its efforts toward Level 2 certification, paving the way for strengthening its research enterprise. CAREERS Ground Broken for Critical Infrastructure Security Site Two years ago in 2024, Texas Tech University established an institute dedicated to examining vulnerabilities in the critical infrastructure of the U.S. and develop methods to clarify and mediate those vulnerabilities. TECHNOLOGY UPDATE Stronger Battery Safety by Spray, Immersion Cooling A spray-based immersion cooling technology is in development that is capable of effectively cooling lithium-ion battery packs and reducing fire risks using a small amount of dielectric liquid. STANDARDS Updated Safety Standard Gives Clarity An updated safety standard, ASTM E2920-26 from ASTM International, brings a more structured approach to recording and evaluating workplace injuries, illnesses, and Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) events. RESEARCH Agentic AI Browsers Rife with Risk In the last year or so, artificial intelligence companies have rolled out a spate of web browsers equipped with AI agents. Industry Voices - AI just crossed from cyber hype into cyber capability. The only defense that scales with it is the unglamorous work most teams keep deferring – Fundamentals. - AI agents are coming for your business. Industry predictions claim the number of tasks executed by agents will grow at a CAGR of 524 percent to reach 415 trillion by 2030. - The next wave of corporate endpoints is already here. AI-powered PCs, equipped with dedicated neural processing units (NPUs), which have the capability to run generative AI workloads locally on the endpoint instead of sending data to the cloud. - In today’s interconnected industrial landscape, whether or not cybersecurity threats are increasing is no longer up for debate. The most valuable discussion now centers on how we collectively address them. Sending it your way Industry White Papers Safety Goes Digital Manufacturing organizations around the world continue to boost their digital footprint and increase connectivity to reap dividends from data and heighten knowledge gleaned from sensors, assets, and devices to help increase productivity, strengthen their process, and help keep workers safe.
