CYBERSECURITY
CYBERSECURITY
The world has developed into a digital, data-driven and interconnected society, driving the digitalisation of the manufacturing industry. With this rapid development, manufacturing cybersecurity has become a crucial factor. At Elisa IndustrIQ, we leverage cutting-edge cybersecurity expertise to support our manufacturing solutions. Benefiting from the state-of-the-art cybersecurity processes of Elisa in the ever-challenging telecom sector, we ensure that your operations are secure, resilient, and trustworthy.
ELISA CYBERSECURITY CENTER
AN EXPERIENCED SECURITY PARTNER
Elisa is a pioneer and leader in cyber security in the Nordics since 1995. Combining experience with expertise and understanding of modern technologies, automation and process knowhow, we have created unbeatable cybersecurity services for our customers. Today, Elisa monitors digital business environments of major Finnish organisations. Our cybersecurity processes are based on a combination of suitable technologies managed and delivered by our top specialists through effective, tested and verified processes.
SAFEGUARD MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS
The goal is simple – ensuring that the digital aspects of your business are secure. Common blocking and preventive information security solutions (such as spam filter and virus detection softwareare) are no longer sufficient in fighting the ever-increasing cyber threats. Manufacturers that become more and more digital require a partner that can provide continuous cyber security to ensure the continuity of the organisation’s business operations and to meet customer requirements.
Wärtsilä Combats Cyber Threats with Elisa
Wärtsilä, a global leader in energy and maritime solutions, has established its cybersecurity in partnership with Elisa. The risk of cyber threats has grown significantly for Wärtsilä due to geopolitical changes, crises, and artificial intelligence developments, leading to a substantial need for cybersecurity base. Read in this use case how Wärtsilä built and improved their cybersecurity with Elisa and how this project benefitted the whole organisation.
ENSURE THE CONTINUITY OF YOUR BUSINESS
Elisa cybersecurity services enable in-depth detection and response capability to cater to information security incidents.
INCREASED VISIBILITY
With our manufacturing cybersecurity services, you gain up-to-date visibility into device, software, and network traffic data through the use of technological passive sensors. They learn, gather information, and monitor network traffic, alerting you to any potential anomalies.
DIGITAL ADVANTAGE
Elisa Industrial Network Situation Awareness identifies the risk levels of components to form the basis for contingency planning. Our Cybersecurity Center (SOC) ensures the management of cyber threats for both IT and OT networks.
SECURITY LEVEL & MONITORING
Our services monitor and observe deviations and other cyber threats arising in a multi-vendor environment, ensuring the desired level of cybersecurity for the operational technology (OT) network.
PRODUCTION NETWORK DEVELOPMENTS OPEN UP NEW RISKS
Modern operational models such as IP-based automation, centralised monitoring, and analytics offer new advantages in managing industrial networks. These benefits include cost savings and flexibility. They also increase production efficiency but have exposed production systems to cyber threats and vulnerabilities. The risk of cyber threats has become particularly pronounced in production facilities critical to societal infrastructure. Typical challenges in OT environments also include weak passwords, improperly configured PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), vulnerabilities from device manufacturers, as well as unknown wireless access points or direct internet connections. Vulnerabilities can also be due to a lack of reporting and visibility and insufficient operational support.
CYBERSECURITY IN MANUFACTURING
In this article, we dive deeper into the importance of cybersecurity in the manufacturing industry. By understanding the current cyber threats, adopting fundamental manufacturing cybersecurity practices, and implementing advanced protective measures, manufacturers can fortify their operations. From the shopfloor to the digital sphere, we explore how manufacturers can navigate through these cyber challenges and emerge stronger and more resilient.
