Cybersecurity and risk management in industrial and civil engineering systems

With the increasing adoption of digital technologies in industrial and civil engineering systems, the need for effective cybersecurity and risk management practices has become more critical than ever. Cyber attacks can cause significant damage to critical infrastructure and disrupt operations, leading to financial losses, reputational damage, and even loss of life. In this paper, we explore the importance of cybersecurity and risk management in industrial and civil engineering systems. We discuss the various threats faced by organizations, the challenges they face in implementing effective cybersecurity controls, and the role of risk management in addressing these challenges. Additionally, we present the results of a survey conducted on cybersecurity and risk management practices in the industry, highlighting the areas that need improvement.
