Unintended Consequences of Smart Manufacturing

Smart manufacturing enhances efficiency and innovation but presents challenges.
Key challenges:
- Cybersecurity risks: Increased connectivity expands attack surfaces. Manufacturing is a prime target for cyberattacks.
- Data management: Smart manufacturing generates vast data. While 95% see data as beneficial, only 39% scale data-driven use cases.
- Cultural transformation: Expert Philip Horn states, "25% is technology, 75% is mindset and culture," stressing organizational alignment.
Robust security, effective data management, and a collaborative culture are vital for digital transformation.
