Cyber Risk in Manufacturing

Risk Engineering Track

 

Date: 21 October 2020
Times: 10 AM London Time with a recorded replay at 3 PM London Time

 

During past webinars we have discussed the vital role that technology plays on today’s industries, through the use of monitoring equipment for safety and vital systems such as security and other sensors. Although the advancement of this technology has been overall a positive for the advancement of manufacturing, playing a critical role in operations, it has also introduced a number of new vulnerabilities that can be exploited by hackers capable of penetrating infrastructure and causing mayhem.

 

As technology changes and the methods used by hackers change, new factors must be considered when trying to determine how to address this topic. This webinar is designed to give critical information to assist delegates in understanding the causes and consequences of cyber-attacks faced by different industrial plants, and the nature of investigations following such losses.

 

By the end of this webinar, delegates will have an understanding of • What components within an industrial plant can provide an entry point for hackers • Vulnerabilities in industrial plants that can be exploited by hackers • How (re)insurers and loss adjusters can investigate and identify whether physical damage was initiated by a cyber attack • Real life cases where physical damage could have been the result of hacking activity • How to establish a protocol for determining the role played by cyber-attacks in failures
