the questions left in a golden envelope on your table, before sharing with the full audience the
conclusions your group has come to.
IIoT: What Manufacturers Should Know
What does IoT actually mean to your business? There are so many new technologies to watch,
it is difficult to discern which will bring value. From machine-to-machine, to data analytics, to
the cloud, to virtual and augmented reality, the technology is as vast as it is confusing. Find out
what you need to know or share what you do know.
Choosing a platform, transitioning from SCADA to IoT
SCADA, a system tried and true among many manufacturers and the ultimate precursor to IoT.
This roundtable will cover how to retro-fit SCADA with IoT. Do you need to rip out perfectly
functioning sensors that are already hard-wired? How can you make that transition effectively
and economically?
Cybersecurity Considerations for Manufacturers
Your manufacturing process and intellectual property are targets. The Homeland Security’s
Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity Emergency Response Team, or ICS-CERT, responded
to a total of 295 cyber incidents, up 20 percent from the previous fiscal year. This roundtable
discusses the imminent threats and strategies you can take to minimize risks and prevent attacks.
The Cloud, The Fog The Edge
Cloud, fog, and edge computing are being employed by manufacturers to manage, analyze and
translate date into business insights.. Break down the similarities and differences between the
approaches being used in operation and decide which bests suits your production.
