Rockwell Automation Targets Industrial Cyber Resilience in ROKStudios
Nearly half of global manufacturers faced a cyber incident last year, prompting Rockwell Automation to launch a new season of its ROKStudios video series. Filmed at the Secure Digital Operations Forum in the UK, the episodes focus on shifting industrial security from a compliance checklist to a core business strategy.
The series arrives as IT and operational technology convergence creates new vulnerabilities, forcing companies to move beyond basic defense. Drawing from Rockwell’s 11th Annual State of Smart Manufacturing Report, the program features industry leaders who are integrating cybersecurity directly into supply chain operations and long-term business planning.
John Speakman, Rockwell’s director of cybersecurity services for EMEA, argues that security is now fundamental to maintaining continuity as firms scale AI and automation. The episodes include practical insights from Mondelēz International’s Andrew Peckston on embedding security into global supply chains, and William Grant & Sons’ Steve Lynn on the necessity of foundational asset visibility and network segmentation. Additional segments examine the impact of emerging regulations like the Cyber Resilience Act, emphasizing that security must be maintained throughout the entire product lifecycle.
