Industrial Automation Sector Scorecard - Thematic Intelligence

Industrial Automation Sector Scorecard - Thematic Intelligence

Summary

Most sectors are now turning their attention (and budgets) toward developing their artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. The industrial automation sector is no exception. Better AI capabilities will benefit these companies, improving their ability to develop smart robotic technologies.

Key Highlights

Leaders in industrial automation provide essential devices and technologies to government clients. These companies are also the bedrock of smart city initiatives globally, and their technologies need to be protected against potential hackers. Rockwell Automation is a major provider to the US government, but the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) found potentially serious vulnerabilities in several products. Companies need to tighten their cybersecurity protocols and take a more proactive approach. Otherwise, their reputation risks being damaged beyond repair.
