Stay Ahead of NIS2 - Make OT Cybersecurity a Top Priority for Your Company

Cybersecurity is a Europe-wide priority, and safeguarding your OT networks is essential for achieving peace of mind. At Moxa, we have more than 35 years in the OT market, and as such, we understand the unique challenges our customers face in protecting their OT environments. With the rise in cyberattacks targeting manufacturing and the vulnerabilities of insufficiently protected OT networks, securing your systems has never been more crucial. Insecure or improperly secured networks pose significant risks, potentially compromising converged systems and leaving inter-network communications vulnerable. As one of the few CVE Numbering Authorities (CNA) with extensive experience in OT, Moxa provides secure networking solutions designed to protect your industrial networks from cyber threats and human error. Our solutions ensure the availability and reliability of your industrial operations, making it easier to defend against cyber threats and maximize system availability.

We want you to benefit from our experience for free! We're offering a free cybersecurity training session or a lifetime license to MXview One with 10 nodes to amp up your cybersecurity game. Gain key takeaways that you can directly implement into your OT network and be prepared for the current and future OT networking cybersecurity challenges.

What Are the European Cybersecurity Trends in OT Networking?

Figuring Out How to Comply With NIS2

The Network and Information Security Directive 2 (NIS2) will affect many industries including essential services, digital service providers, public administration, and many SMEs. In Germany alone, this is about 29,000 companies according to the Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik. The biggest challenge to companies is to figure out how to comply, and this is where Moxa's expertise can support your adaptations, especially with a free license to MXview One.

Europe's Cyber Resilience Act

The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is a legislation proposed by the European Union to enhance the cybersecurity of any products that are digitally connected. This means manufacturers need to ensure they consider cybersecurity at all stages of the product lifecycle and are transparent about risks or breaches. Companies will have implementation deadlines in 2025 and 2027, meaning the time to ensure compliance is now.

04 - The Necessary Evil of Building the Industrial IoT

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) aims to increase productivity and make users lives easier. However, this can only be achieved when the Industrial IoT environment has reliable network connectivity. An unreliable network presents users with several challenges including: longer system downtime, cyber security risks, and unstable operations, especially when using a wireless connection. The diagram below uses factory automation as an example to illustrate what kind of concerns our industry partners face when trying to adopt lndustrial loT applications and benefit from them.
