Propelling U.S. Manufacturing Competitiveness through Cybersecurity Innovations
iSpeech.org
Manufacturing systems, supply chains, and processes are increasingly vulnerable to cyber-attacks. According to NBC News, the manufacturing sector in the U.S. lost nearly $240 billion in revenue and 42,220 manufacturing jobs from 2002 to 2012 due to cyber-attacks. An interdisciplinary team of researchers lead by Penn State is bringing together leading research institutions, industry partners, and National Labs to leverage a Stage 2 proposal for $70mil from the Department of Energy to form a Manufacturing Innovation Institute focused on making U.S. manufacturing systems secure and attack-resilient.
During this informational webinar, Dr’s. Peng Liu and Jingjing Li of Penn State will discuss the focus of the institute, how it will be structured, and how your organization can join us in building a new university/industry collaboration to expand our ability to address evolving cybersecurity threats to greater energy efficiency in manufacturing industries, develop new cybersecurity technologies and methods, and share information and knowledge to the broader community of U.S. manufacturers.
