Navigating Cybersecurity Challenges in Manufacturing

Security in manufacturing has become a critical concern as production systems become more digitized and interconnected. As this digitization advances, improving cybersecurity preparedness is vital to safeguarding operations and staying ahead of emerging threats.

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, sponsored by Microsoft, hosts Scott W. Luton and Kevin L. Jackson are joined by Thomas Marr, Senior Cybersecurity Engineer at Lockheed Martin. They discuss the critical intersection of cybersecurity, manufacturing, and the aviation industry.

Thomas shares his expertise on how the rapid pace of digital transformation—fueled by innovations such as AI, machine learning, and cloud computing—has reshaped the cybersecurity landscape. The conversation covers the unique challenges of protecting operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) systems in manufacturing, while providing valuable insights into the growing importance of supply chain security across the aviation sector.

Tune in to learn how cybersecurity professionals like Thomas are navigating the ever-evolving threat landscape in manufacturing, applying continuous learning to stay ahead of bad actors, and ensuring the safety of both military and civilian aerospace operations.
