At AMFT, precision metal forming is our expertise—but in today’s hyper-connected world, protecting our operations is just as vital. Manufacturing faces escalating threats: ransomware targeting outdated systems, expanded attack surfaces from IoT & cloud tech, AI data vulnerabilities, and supply chain risks that can halt production & erode trust. Downtime isn’t an option—it disrupts revenue, safety, & partnerships. 💻⚙️
Our own Greg Zelo nails it in his latest piece on KBI Media. We’re tackling this head-on with layered defenses: network segmentation, robust identity controls, OT/IT monitoring, & proactive testing. It’s like preventative maintenance for your plant—ensuring uptime, safeguarding IP, & staying supply chain compliant (hello, NIST standards!). No single fix, but a aligned IT-engineering strategy keeps us ahead. 🛡️📈
