When we talk about a machine (or system) being fully protected from outside influences/threats, it would be great if we could just wrap it up in cotton wool, put on our blinkers and carry on as if nothing will ever happen.
Sadly, this is obviously not the case and we have to ensure our customers are well aware of the dangers out there for their machines/systems.

With the next industrial revolution around the corner, highly intelligent connected systems are crucial in the transformation of traditional plants into smart factories.
The next industrial revolution, named Industry 4.0, is a high-tech strategy which has been adopted by the German government and now being introduced to the UK which promotes the computerisation of traditional industries such as manufacturing. The ultimate goal is to create intelligent factories that encompass cyber-physical production systems that combine communications, IT data and physical elements. Here, machines talk to products and other machines, objects deliver decision-critical data and information is processed and distributed in real time.
