Understanding the Industrial IoT and its Cybersecurity Implications

Published: Oct. 25, 2018, 1:27 p.m.

Implementing industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices can help improve efficiency and boost worker safety, but – no big surprise – it also comes with potential cybersecurity challenges. Yet prior to the release of a new IBM Institute for Business Value (IBV) study, specific data on IIoT security was conspicuously absent. In this podcast, three experts from the IBM IBV discuss the growing cybersecurity impact of IIoT adoption and the findings of their two new reports, "Automotive Industrial Internet of Things: Quick to Implement, Slow to Secure" [http://ibm.biz/autoiiot] and "Industrial Internet of Things Cybersecurity: As Strong as Its Weakest Link” [http://bit.ly/2PjqBtE].
