Industrial Cybersecurity Threats and how to deal with them

Swedsoft invites you to our new webinar serie Software inspiration for professionals.  During these webinars we want to give you inspiration and new knowledge direct from leading experts from Swedish Academia. 

Welome to our first event in the serie – Industrial Cybersecurity Threats and how to deal with them on Tuesday February 8th, 16:00- 17:00. 

The ongoing digitalisation, in addition to providing many benefits, means that more and more machines are connected, which creates new attack surfaces that cybercriminals and foreign governments can exploit to achieve their goals. Goals that for the plant owner can result in significant costs in the form of production losses, leaked trade secrets or accidents with catastrophic consequences.

During this webinar you will get the opportunity to listen to Hans Hansson, Professor in Real-Time Systems at Mälardalen University, Director of Mälardalen Real-Time Research Centre and Scientific Leader at RISE SICS Västerås, who will talk about the cybersecurity threats that manufacturing companies need to be aware of and have strategies to handle, as well as how to work in a professional way to minimize the consequences of these risks.
