WASHINGTON–U.S. manufacturers remain the prime targets for cyberattack and cyberespionage by malicious hackers, a new industry report shows. The report warns that there is a critical need for U.S. government and industry to build an effective cybersecurity framework to safeguard against a future major attack on the U.S. manufacturing industry, which forms the backbone of the U.S. economy and is responsible for equipping the U.S. military.
The report, titled “Cybersecurity for Manufacturers,” is produced by Computing Research Association’s Computing Community Consortium (CCC) together with MForesight, a federally-funded consortium for the U.S. manufacturing industry.
