# **Cyber Breaches Can Shut Down Your Production Floor**

The manufacturing industry is going through a revolution, industry 4.0, impacting
the industrial control systems on your manufacturing floor. Industry 4.0 is bringing
network connectivity, remote access, big data to systems, and the requirement of
a specialized skillset that were once operated with mechanical switches and an on-
site only workforce. This new wave brings a host of vulnerabilities, especially 
as threat actors adopt AI tools to scan publicly accessible networks to find vulnerabilities
and points of entry for breaches, as well as using AI outreach to conduct phishing
attacks faster, enabling them to target organizations of any size, at a much faster
pace. 

Traditional network and remote access solutions including the VPN, Remote Desktop,
TeamViewer, jumpboxes, etc. aren’t equipped to deal with modern threat actors and
often lack security capabilities. These tools require a publicly accessible IP address,
and open ports which make your network vulnerable, introducing entry points for 
threat actors.

A breach of your network can be costly, time consuming, and result in long term 
outages. Just recently we’ve seen [Jaguar Land Rover suffer a breach](https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/jaguar-land-rover-hack-cost-uk-economy-25-billion-report-says-2025-10-22/)
that is shaping up to be the costliest in UK history with a 6 week shutdown. [Asahi, Japan’s largest beer producer, also got breached](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cly64g5y744o),
creating a backlog of order fulfillment. As well as industry giant [Clorox being hit with a production loss of $380 Million due to a cyber breach](https://specopssoft.com/blog/clorox-password-social-engineering/).
All three cases above saw long term outages of their entire operations system due
to cyber breaches, bringing production to a halt, resulting in an extensive loss
of revenue.

Join Agilicus as we explore ways you can protect your organization from these evolving
threats, identify third-party risks, and lock down remote access for every user 
that works with or for your organization with a Zero Trust Architecture.

 * Implement robust access strategies to protect your systems from growing threats

   workflow
 * Allow any user to access what they need, with their existing emails, from anywhere
   with Single Sign-on and Multi-factor Authentication, even with unlike identity
   providers
