Security trends and advances in manufacturing systems in the era of industry 4.0

Abstract

The next industrial revolution will incorporate various enabling technologies. These technologies will make the product lifecycle of the manufacturing system efficient, decentralized, and well-connected. However, these technologies have various security issues, and when integrated in the product lifecycle of manufacturing systems can pose various challenges for maintaining the security requirements such as confidentiality, integrity, and availability. In this paper, we will present the various trends and advances in the security of the product lifecycle of the manufacturing system while highlighting the roles played by the major enabling components of Industry 4.0.
