Actionable Benefits

Actionable Benefits

  • Optimize a secure industrial design strategy that avoids Intellectual Property (IP) theft, including design blueprints, manufacturing formulas, and unpatented IPs.
  • Assess data security solutions and plan strategies that address areas of high IP theft risk.
  • Plan effective vendor marketing strategies to cover IP security through data protection and Identity and Access Management (IAM).
  • Understand that IP security is not achieved through one-time solutions. Depending on the nature and location of the IP, different remedies may be required.
Critical Questions Answered

Critical Questions Answered

  • How and where do major IP leakages occur in the industrial process?
  • How to avoid IP theft during design, manufacturing, and post-market?
  • Who are the vendors offering products, solutions, and services to avoid data IP theft?
Research Highlights

Research Highlights

  • How to employ best practices to detect, deter, and protect IP infringement. If vendors cannot “detect” breaches, determent and protection will never happen.
  • Company insiders are a growing threat to data security begging a comprehensive strategy; not just addressing the issue when employees leave a company.
  • IP infringement occurs along the production chain in many forms, therefore, should be remedied based on the stage where IP is located.
  • Internet of Things (IoT) connections and embracing Industry 4.0 increase exposure to IP data theft by contributing to more points of entry and expanding the attack surface.
Who Should Read This?

Who Should Read This?

  • Vendors providing IP theft prevention solutions.
  • Industrial organizations assessing mitigation strategies to avoid espionage and IP theft.
  • Firms that deploy third-party contract manufacturing.
  • Firms that have operations or contracts in high-risk IP geolocations.
  • Leading-edge technology, namely pharmaceuticals, energy, defense, semiconductors and telcos, where IP vulnerabilities are costly.
