Manufacturing IT/OT Summit USA 2026
About the Security Event
The Manufacturing IT/OT Summit USA 2025 focuses on how industrial companies can bring practical value from digital transformation in manufacturing. The event explores the convergence of information technology and operational technology in factory environments, including how businesses can overcome challenges related to connectivity, interoperability, and data management. Since digital transformation increases system complexity, discussions include cybersecurity risk, especially where IT and OT integration introduces new attack surfaces that require protection and resilient practices.
Participants will hear from industry experts about real-world use cases, trend insights, and technologies such as the Industrial Internet of Things, AI, and predictive maintenance. These themes are relevant to cybersecurity professionals because securing OT systems, real-time data streams, and networked devices are critical parts of protecting industrial infrastructure. The summit provides a platform to share best practices, enhance secure system design, and foster collaboration among engineers, IT leaders, and security practitioners who work to strengthen industrial networks against emerging threats.
