Secure remote access to production assets, data and applications, along with the latest collaboration tools, provides plant and sites with the ability to apply the right skills and resources at the right time, independent of their physical location. OEMs are looking to reduce costs, add more value to their Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS) customers and differentiate themselves from their competitors. This paper outlines the means to enable secure remote access to plant or site-based applications and data and can be used as guidance for OEMs to collaborate with their customers when designing a secure remote access solution.

Success as an OEM has always hinged on the ability to design and deploy machines in ways that yield rapid time to value, no matter the challenges that may be involved.

Industry challenges, both perennial and new, are likely here to stay.

What’s different now is the technology landscape and opportunities it presents for OEMs to not only maximize efficiency from within, but also to differentiate themselves and strengthen their position in the marketplace.

Every day, we navigate a complex landscape: aiming for increased profitable growth without sacrificing quality; building greater resiliency and agility; stretching to make operations more sustainable; and tackling workforce and supply chain challenges simultaneously.

What can we learn from our common struggles? And how can we leverage global trends to reach our own goals? This research spotlights one common thread: the need for technology to mitigate risks, open up new opportunities, and remain competitive.

Enterprise connectivity represents a massive opportunity for both machine builders and their customers.

But the risks associated with having a complex, interconnected system – from cybercriminals and competitors – are growing. Almost one in two companies has experienced illicit copying of entire machines. Cyberattacks can cause damage to physical assets, workers or products.

Fundamental to today’s production environment is the ability to provide secure, remote access for end customers, improve productivity and safety, protect critical production data from internal and external threats, while keeping intellectual property equally secure.

Security breaches in the Food and Beverage industry can impact production in unique ways. Attacks can occur on key operational systems such as refrigeration; materials might be misdirected; recipes may be tampered with or stolen, leading beyond product and financial losses to product quality and safety issues. A specific cybersecurity strategy addressing these specialized risks is required.
