Enabling Cybersecurity for the Digital Manufacturing Supply Chain

Abstract

While large organizations have made significant strides on identifying ways to protect their manufacturing operations, the small and medium size manufacturers (SMMs) lack the resources that big companies have to research and implement tools that can help them understand and mitigate their vulnerabilities. There is a lack of tools and expertise needed to identify and mitigate cyberattack vulnerabilities for small and medium manufacturers in the supply chain. The goals of this project are benchmarking and evaluating cybersecurity tools for OT and IT asset inventory and network vulnerability assessments that are accessible to small and medium manufacturers. The selected tools were deployed at various SMMs and evaluated against objective criteria.
