As manufacturers increasingly adopt AI and cloud technologies, the potential for cyber risks escalates.

In August, a cyberattack forced Jaguar Land Rover to halt production for a month, incurring $260 million in cybersecurity costs and $650 million in losses due to production disruptions and other factors. This incident highlights growing cybersecurity vulnerabilities in the manufacturing sector, which is increasingly adopting AI and cloud systems without adequate security measures. Experts warn that the rapid digitization of manufacturing processes, combined with outdated systems, exposes manufacturers to significant risks, including unauthorized data access and various cyberattacks.
