Cybersecurity for Manufacturing and Industry

In manufacturing, a cyberattack can cause line stoppages, shipment delays and quality problems in addition to data loss. Nokta Guard tests factory networks and SCADA systems without stopping production and exposes the paths between IT, OT and supplier connections.

Relevant regulations

There is no single sector-specific penetration testing regulation for manufacturing, but customer and supply chain expectations often bring frameworks such as ISO 27001 into play. KVKK Technical Measures apply to all systems that process personal data.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Will penetration testing stop production?

We plan testing not to disrupt production. Passive methods take priority on live lines; active tests are run during planned downtime or in test environments.

Is penetration testing mandatory for manufacturers?

There is no general sector-specific requirement. Customer contracts, ISO 27001 certification and insurance expectations, however, frequently call for regular security testing.

How are supplier connections tested?

We assess remote access solutions, the scope of privileges and how that access reaches the OT network. The goal is to see how far an attacker could get if a supplier account were compromised.
