The document entitled "Benefits of cybersecurity for industrial companies" aims to offer an upbeat vision of cybersecurity

The Industrial Cybersecurity Center (Centro de Ciberseguridad Industrial: CCI) and the Innovation and Technology Trends Institute (Instituto de Tendencias en Tecnología e Innovación: iTTi) have joined forces to conduct an analysis that aims to show the benefits of industrial cybersecurity, as a means of phasing today’s digital innovation trend into organizations and as a driver of their productive processes.

The document has been drawn up with the help of an exclusive group of sector experts, who offered their testimonies, opinions, outlooks and views on the influence of cybersecurity within their own organizations. In the words of Javier Zubieta, Manager of Cybersecurity Business Development in GMV Secure e-Solutions, as collaborator of the archive, “the industrial sector can benefit from the totally tried-and-tested cybersecurity practices in other sectors, with a very high level of maturity. These can help the organization in achieving all its business goals and become an inseparable companion of any business initiative”.

In today’s Spain the industry sector is at a watershed moment of the digital transformation. Studies like this one are therefore vital for bringing home to all stakeholders the real danger of shrinking from the Industry 4.0 challenge for fear of tackling the risks involved. This study deals with the following themes:

1. The industrial cybersecurity capability as a business driver
2. The industrial-cybersecurity role of the board of directors
3. The role of the executive committee in defining and implementing the industrial cybersecurity strategy
4. Threats for industry in the digital era
5. Current enablers for the development of industrial cybersecurity
6. Benefits of cybersecurity for industrial companies
7. Testimonies and reflections

Convinced that cybersecurity is one of the mainstays shoring up any industrial organization, GMV has long been supporting the writing of reports and other documents of value to support the cybersecurity strategy as a vital part of corporate strategy.
