I’ve been sharing articles and resources regarding AI and Cybersecurity this year, but have failed to focus a vital, but hidden opportunity and accompanying threat (they always come together): AI, manufacturing, and cybersecurity.

You may not be in manufacturing but may have customers or vendors upon whom you rely. Any disruption to them can disrupt you. To forestall that, Vistage speaker and Cybersecurity expert Mike Foster forwarded to me his most recent blog post that addresses what users of robotics and manufacturing must consider to stay up and running. AI Advancements Meet Security: CEO’s Handbook to Securing Robotics and Manufacturing Networks.
