Presenter: Dr Adam Drobot, Chairman of the Board, Open Tech Works

Digital Transformation is solving many of today’s complex businessand societal problems. Successful enterprises are realizing its value byharnessing the power of computing, communications, data, and the human mind. Inhis keynote address, Adam Drobot will look at three factors influencing DigitalTransformation success: 

1. Technological advancements, 

2.  New infrastructures and tools that lower the economic bar forenterprises to scale products, services, andinternal processes,

3.  A strategy shift to embrace collaboration and shared resources,within enterprises and across a larger ecosystem.  

The session will address opportunities and challenges fororganizations to achieve success in their Digital Transformation journey, withconsiderations for innovation, efficiency, and user experience. The impact oninfluential paradigms will be discussed. These include Digital Twins, the IoT,IT and OT, the Metaverse, Industrie 4.0, and Cyber-physical systems.

This session will review the role of trustworthiness and security in enabling sustainability. We will explore approaches to reducing the risks of meeting the UN’s 17 Goals for Sustainable Development, especially those that impact the critical infrastructure sectors, such as water treatment, energy and industrial infrastructure. Using the IIC Trustworthiness Framework Foundations and the IISF, we will discuss the roles of security, safety, reliability, resilience, and privacy in sustainability.

Presenter: Bassam Zarkout/IGnPower and Marcellus Buchheit/Wibu Systems, Chairs of the Digital Transformation Working Group

The brainstorming session will explore how the application of digital technologies and resulting digital transformation and innovative value delivery models can help organizations in industry achieve their sustainability goals (environmental, economic and social).

Abstract:  The development of Smart Factories and Supply Chains creates several challenges, the need for data and connectivity is foundational; however, the need for security is essential.  Businesses are looking for efficient data sharing that creates visibility, supply chain resiliency, manufacturing agility.  This creates several implementation challenges; connectivity,  legacy system integration, ever expanding number of IoT devices on factory floor, Network/IT management, and data security.  This session will address how data security plays an integral part in achieving business results and goals and a novel technology that is being developed and readiness for commercial testbed application.

With the increasing complexity and diversity of IIoT systems, a new approach to develop architectures to build these new and innovative systems is needed. The Architecture TG is working on as solution to this challenge in version 2.0 of the Industrial Internet Reference Architecture (IIRA). Topics to be discussed include:

•  Background on the evolution and challenges of modern system design
• Overview of the ISO/IEC AG 8 Reference Architecture Best Practices document and how IIRA 2.0 leverages these best practices to meet the new challenges.
• Discussion of architecture challenges for next generation sustainability solutions.

Manufacturing has overtaken financial services as the most attacked industry. Zero Trust Architecture (US NIST SP 800-207) provides meaningful guidance on how to move beyond perimeter-based approaches to more trustworthy cyber defenses. Both users (employees, vendors and contractors) and resources, such as cloud servers, IoT devices, and control systems, have moved beyond the traditional perimeter. The US White House and OMB have also provided specific directives to all federal agencies to adopt zero trust (ZT) to move to a mindset of “never trust, always verify.”

In this session, we will provide an overview of zero trust architecture tenets and deployment models. We will also examine the pros and cons of various zero trust network access (ZTNA) approaches such as micro segmentation, cloud-based SASE, and software-defined perimeter (SDP). We will also review the applicability of ZT to protecting ICS systems, including legacy control systems and modern digital twins. Specifically, we’ll examine using ZT for improving the trustworthiness for remote access, site-to-site connectivity, cloud, and on-prem networking. Attendees will have a better understanding of how to use ZT concepts and technologies to help organizations to prevent compromised access, unauthorized discovery, and lateral attacks. 

Presenter: Sungcheol Kim/Samsung Electronics, Chaisung Lim/Korea Industry 4.0 Association

This session will cover the BIDX framework (v7), which describes a methodology for helping organizations overcome the challenges of IT/OT convergence. The framework provides innovative processes to reduce internal and external organization and process-related frictions during transformation and enhance operational efficiency. By embracing this framework, organizations can improve collaboration between IT and OT teams and make better decisions.
