“ While Industry 4.0 saw connectivity of the end-to-end processes , Industry 5.0 harnesses all these other smart devices out there to effectively drive the optimisation of factories and production between humans and machines ”

“ Compliance and governance are also driving this need for organisations to take action and develop a standard framework .”
Innovations in cybersecurit When it comes to innovation , Chassar is seeing clear investments being made in Claroty ’ s deep domain expertise area within industrial environments . “ Organisations are innovating in network policy segmentation , user identity permissions , and network policy management to mitigate risks ,” he says .
“ I ’ ve also started to see more innovation in secure access , making sure that organisations have specific tools to access the physical systems ' environment for every user and that can only be accessed by that user . This reduces the possibility of back door risks to the industrial environment .”
Being prepared for a cyber attack “ If an organisation doesn ’ t have a policy or project underway , then they should start one immediately ,” says Chassar .
He explains that it is imperative to understand where the assets are , how they communicate , and where they are most vulnerable . Once they start this process , the organisation needs to get to at least the same level of understanding as the criminals in order to manage this risk .
