The Manufacturing Threat Landscape
The Factory Floor Is Now a Cyber Battleground
Manufacturing is now the most targeted industry. According to IBM X-Force, it accounted for 27%+ of cyberattacks in 2025, with average breach costs exceeding $5.5M per incident.
The reason is clear
IT/OT convergence has eliminated the air gap. Production systems that once operated in isolation are now connected to enterprise IT, cloud platforms, and supply chains. Every PLC, HMI, CNC machine, and sensor expands the attack surface.
The result
Threats that once impacted IT now directly disrupt production.
What Manufacturing Organizations Are Up Against
| Threat Type | Impact on Manufacturing | Why It’s Critical |
|---|---|---|
| Ransomware targeting production systems | Encrypts controllers, HMIs, and critical systems, forcing shutdowns | Every hour of downtime costs $100K–$250K in lost production |
| Lateral movement from IT into OT | 75% of OT threats enter through IT networks and spread to production assets | One infected workstation can impact the entire factory floor |
| Supply chain compromise | Malware introduced through vendors, software updates, or connected equipment | Trusted vendor access becomes the attacker’s entry point |
| Industrial espionage | Theft of proprietary designs, processes, and operational data | Critical systems can’t be patched, but remain continuously at risk |
| Legacy system exploitation | Unpatched PLCs and SCADA systems remain exposed to known vulnerabilities | Critical systems can’t be patched, but remain continuously at risk |
of manufacturers plan to invest in OT cybersecurity within the next five years.
But the challenge isn’t awareness, it’s execution.
You can’t secure production by disrupting it.
Traditional tools either:
- Don’t understand OT environments
- Or introduce risk through scanning, agents, and manual controls
Visibility alone isn’t enough.
Manufacturers need a way to reduce risk and enforce protection, without causing downtime.
Why ORDR for Manufacturing
Protect Production Without Disruption
Manufacturing environments don’t tolerate downtime.
You can’t wait for a breach to expose risk, and you can’t enforce controls that interrupt production.
ORDR is built for this reality.
It gives you the intelligence to understand risk across IT and OT, and the ability to act on it safely, without impacting operations

Why Manufacturers Choose ORDR
Protects Production Uptime
Enforce security controls with confidence. Every policy is validated against real operational workflows before deployment, so protection never comes at the cost of downtime.
Stop Threats Before They Impact Operations
Contain lateral movement from IT to OT. Isolate compromised devices. Prevent ransomware from reaching production systems.
Align Security, IT, and OT Teams
One shared view of every asset and its behavior, eliminating blind spots, conflicting data, and delays in decision-making.
Accelerate Compliance Without the Overhead
Continuous control enforcement supports compliance frameworks. This includes IEC 62443 for industrial automation security. It includes NIST SP 800-82 as an OT security guideline. It includes ISA standards and industry-specific regulations.
Deploys Without Disturbing Production
No agents to install on production equipment. No sensors that disrupt operations. No production downtime during deployment.
Scales Across Plants and Global Operations
Apply consistent policies across sites, lines, and environments—without increasing complexity.
Addressing Compliance & Risk
Manufacturing faces increasing regulatory pressure across IT and OT environments. Frameworks like IEC 62443 and NIST SP 800-82 require more than visibility; they require continuous enforcement of controls and proof of compliance.
ORDR helps you meet these requirements by turning intelligence into enforced, auditable controls.
How ORDR Supports Compliance Frameworks
| Compliance Framework | Requirement | How ORDR Delivers |
|---|---|---|
| IEC 62443 | Asset visibility, defined security levels, and segmentation of industrial control systems | Asset visibility, defined security levels, and segmentation of industrial control systems |
| NIST SP 800-82 | OT security controls, segmentation, and continuous monitoring | Validated segmentation policies with continuous behavioral monitoring across IT and OT environments |
| ISA/IEC 62443-3-3 | Security zones and controlled communication pathways | Enforced least-privilege communication with automated policy validation before deployment |
| Cyber Insurance | Evidence of continuous controls and incident readiness | Real-time compliance dashboards and continuously enforced policies with audit-ready reporting |
| FDA 21 CFR Part 11 (Pharma) | Secure access controls and data integrity for regulated systems | Full audit trails and enforced access controls across all device interactions |

FAQ: Manufacturing Cybersecurity
How does ORDR discover OT devices that can’t run agents?
ORDR uses passive network traffic analysis to identify and profile devices based on real communication behavior, no agents, no scanning, no disruption. This works across legacy PLCs, HMIs, and specialized equipment where software installation isn’t possible.
Will segmentation disrupt production?
No. ORDR validates every policy against real traffic and operational workflows before enforcement. You see exactly what will be impacted, so you can enforce controls with confidence, without interrupting production.
How does ORDR secure legacy OT systems with known vulnerabilities?
ORDR identifies and baselines legacy devices, then applies microsegmentation to restrict their communication to only what’s required. This reduces exposure while allowing systems to continue operating safely.
Can ORDR integrate with our existing security infrastructure?
Yes. ORDR integrates with your existing firewalls, NAC, SIEM, and ITSM tools, enabling enforcement through the controls you already have. No rip-and-replace required
What compliance frameworks does ORDR support?
ORDR helps organizations meet requirements for IEC 62443, NIST SP 800-82, and ISA standards, as well as industry-specific regulations, by continuously enforcing controls and providing audit-ready reporting.
