Security Saturday: Understanding Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and the Importance of CPS Security

Security Saturday is here and we continue our security series together with Cyber Strategy Institute, exploring the role differences between the physical and digital worlds of security tools.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) bridge the gap between the digital and physical worlds, managing real-time processes and interactions across critical infrastructure. These systems are pivotal to the energy, healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation industries. However, their security becomes a pressing concern as CPS grows in complexity and connectivity. Vulnerabilities in these systems can lead to disruptions that affect both the digital and physical realms, causing damage to equipment, operational shutdowns, and posing risks to human safety and economic stability.
