Summary
Pharmaceutical manufacturing operates in a high-stakes environment where regulatory compliance, product integrity, and operational uptime are non-negotiable. As the industry becomes increasingly reliant on interconnected operational technology (OT), the risk of cybersecurity threats grows exponentially. This session provides plant floor managers and OT engineers with expert insights into fortifying OT security specifically within the pharmaceutical sector.
Through a focus on practical strategies for protecting production systems, we will explore how version control, automated disaster recovery, and system integrity checks—core elements of solutions like octoplant—can mitigate risk, ensure compliance, and maintain the highest standards of product quality. Designed as a knowledge-sharing opportunity, this presentation equips pharma manufacturers with the tools to safeguard their processes against modern cyber threats while maintaining operational efficiency and adherence to regulatory requirements.
