Securing Industry 4.0
Industry 4.0 promises a hyper-connected manufacturing environment where cyber-physical systems, IoT devices, and cloud computing combine to enable self-optimizing and self-adapting “smart factories” that can run production processes autonomously.

In his talk, Martin Kuppinger, Principal Analyst at KuppingerCole Analysts, will look at security challenges in Industry 4.0 and how established technologies from IAM and cybersecurity might be utilized for improving security. His talk will also cover the wide range of themes to look at from a security perspective in Industry 4.0, including Edge Computing and SASE.
Internet of Things (IoT) devices also known as connected devices like smart speakers or smart thermostats have become more common features in modern digital life. As IoT devices become more ubiquitous the concerns about security and privacy of the data captured become more pressing. This session will explore the following:
- What are IoT devices and what data can they collect
- Emerging data types that were not previously collected
- The legal, cyber, and privacy risks associated with connected devices
- What can be done to minimize the risks associated with connected devices
Industry 4.0 is all about connected industries. However, more connectivity also brings more cyber-physical threats, in particular in relation to constrained IoT devices. Distributed Ledger Technologies (aka blockchain) and decentralized identities can help to re-establish trust, improve security and develop new business models. This talk will discuss the role of IOTA DLTs in securing connected industries and present some of the solutions and use cases currently being developed.
