Keeping machinery safe in a digital world
The Workshop Programme at MachineBuilding.Live 2024 at the National Motorcycle Museum, Birmingham, was expanded to include a series of Machinery Safety Masterclass talks. Here, Jason Reed, account manager at Pilz, speaks on keeping machinery safe in a digital world, offering advice on protecting industrial automation and control systems against manipulation and keeping them secure from the outside world.
How do you keep your machinery safe if the industrial automation and control systems are not protected against manipulation and also secure from the outside world? How do you master employee protection, liability protection, productivity and data protection in a digital world? How do you increase your quality and simultaneously prevent manipulation on your machines? How do you protect your data and employees in equal measure? This seminar will cover real world solutions based on standards such as IEC 62443 and the up-and-coming Machinery Regulation.
By watching the video you will learn which legislation/standards need to be followed, what security risk assessment entails, the safety risks from inadequate cybersecurity, what are the security foundational requirements, and which countermeasures are most effective.
