The fourth industrial revolution, or Industry 4.0, is seen as the next step after the computer automated industrialization that happened during the last five decades.
This new revolution is powered by buzzwords like IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things), integrated cyber-physical systems, big-data, A.I. (artificial intelligence) and digital twins.
This is no different in the chemical sector. But no matter how a facility is made “smarter”, all these technologies have two things in common: they are all data-driven and they require hyperconnectivity. These two properties represent the next big challenge for cybersecurity within these industrial environments.
