Rockwell finds 46% of industrial organizations faced cyber incidents as AI adoption, IT/OT convergence reshape resilience
Rockwell Automation research found that 46% of industrial organizations experienced cyber incidents over the past year, with IT/OT integration points emerging as among the most vulnerable areas. Concurrent trends in artificial intelligence adoption and operational data convergence are reshaping industrial security requirements, prompting 62% of surveyed organizations to invest in cybersecurity platforms and 45% to plan AI and machine learning deployments for threat detection. The research emphasizes that asset visibility, risk-based vulnerability management, continuous monitoring, and tested incident response capabilities form the foundation for operational resilience in increasingly connected environments.
Why it matters: Industrial organizations planning digital transformation must address IT/OT convergence vulnerabilities and embed cybersecurity into operational resilience strategies, as nearly half report recent incidents and cybersecurity barriers rank second only to workforce shortages in limiting growth.
