In this blog, we'll take a look back at the key topics and trends that defined the industrial IoT journey in 2023.
Empowering our industrial customers to digitize and secure operations at the same time has been prevalent in every conversation this year.
Providing visibility at scale: Cisco networking equipment embed our Cisco Cyber Vision software to provide visibility into OT asset inventories, vulnerabilities, and behaviors without the need for additional appliances or network resources.
The Cisco network enables organizations to assess their OT security posture and monitor cyber risks from internal industrial resources.
Containing threats: Segmenting industrial networks to prevent threats from spreading and ensure assets can only communicate with the appropriate resources they need has become much simpler and does not require additional security appliances.
The Cisco industrial network benefits from Cisco ISE and Cyber Vision working together to enforce ISA/IEC-62443 zones and conduits.
With Cisco Secure Equipment Access, Cisco has brought the zero-trust network access architecture to industrial operations to eliminate the drawbacks of VPN solutions and risks of unmanaged cellular gateways.
Because it's built into Cisco industrial switches and routers, it's very simple to deploy at scale.
We bring simplicity and scale by delivering OT services such as Cyber Vision and Secure Equipment Access from the cloud on the industrial network.
Our cloud software services for OT deliver on our vision of Cisco Cloud Networking to provide a simple and consistent experience across all Cisco platforms.
Cisco's commitment to innovation consistently keeps us focused on what's ahead for industrial networking.
Cloud-delivered OT services to secure industrial networks at scale: Our industrial customers frequently tell us they often lack skilled resources to secure operations at scale.
In 2023, Cisco has made Cyber Vision available as a cloud-based service to help easily gain visibility on OT asset inventories and their security posture.
Bottomline, we are helping our customers leverage the industrial network as a platform for innovation to ensure secure operations and unlock more value by enabling access to operational devices and data.
Industrial AI. The AI topic is top of mind for the industrial customer.
Industrial AI can unlock remarkable value for organizations and is seen as a key enabler for improving efficiency, reducing costs, enhancing security etc.
Now industrial AI models require large amounts of industrial data to train its algorithms.
Cisco is helping organizations enable their AI use cases at scale by providing best of breed network and security.
As we move into 2024, we promise to continue pushing the boundaries driving digital transformation and shaping the future of industrial networks.
We look forward to seeing some of you at Cisco Live EMEA. To dive deeper into technical topics at Cisco Live, follow our industrial IoT learning maps.
