Secure communication, powerful machines: cybersecurity as a design principle

Cyberattacks are no longer a distant concern, but a real risk for mechanical engineering. New regulations like NIS2 and the Cyber Resilience Act also make cybersecurity a strict requirement.
In this interactive session, presented in collaboration with our partner Duranmatic, you'll discover how to integrate cybersecurity from the design stage—secure by design. The focus isn't just on the machine itself, but also on communication: how do you ensure data exchange between machines, factories, and the cloud is secure and reliable?
We demonstrate how IEC 62443 architectures and scalable OT firewall solutions protect both simple and complex networks, and how a well-thought-out communications strategy reduces risk and increases trust. By taking an integrated approach to cybersecurity and connectivity, you not only build secure machines but also lasting customer relationships.
This is how you develop a clear advantage in the competitive mechanical engineering market. Whether you're still in the exploratory phase or already taking steps toward implementation, this story will help you make the right choices and build for the future.
