CYBERSECURITY FOR ADVANCED MANUFACTURING

DoD and industry have focused much effort on protecting technical information in business andengineering information systems. Relatively less action has been taken to improve protection oftechnical data in factory floor networks and control systems, which are increasingly subject to cyberthreats. Cybersecurity on the factory floor merits increased DoD and industry attention.NDIA’s Manufacturing Division and Cyber Division have jointly developed this White Paper to heighten awareness of the emerging threats, vulnerabilities and consequences in the Industrial Control Systems used in manufacturing. Better practices and technical solutions are needed to protect against theft of technical data transiting or residing in manufacturing systems, alteration of the data (thereby compromising the physical parts produced), or interference with reliable and safe operation of a production line. Solutions must be cost effective, especially for smaller manufacturers in defense supply chains. This White Paper offers several recommendations for enhancing protection of technical data in factory floor networks and control systems.
NDIA wishes to acknowledge the authors, contributors and reviewers of this report (Appendix 1), with special thanks to the many government and industry subject matter experts (Appendix 2) who graciously consented to data collection interviews.
