The\nentry of industry 4.0 has left a large series of technological proposals to\nhelp companies to carry out their activities, however, has also brought a lot\nof risks. The 21st Global PWC CEO Survey revealed that, mostly of international\nCEOs consider cyber threats to be the main risks for companies. The common\nobjectives of a cyber attack are systems that are weakly fortified or without\nany security system, and of course, once a company enters the Internet, it will\nhave greater connectivity, but greater vulnerability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unfortunately,\nthe shortcomings in cybersecurity of these new industrial environments (such as\nthe IoT), and the same hardware that make them, make them clear objectives for\ncyber attacks where, theft of sensitive data, hijacking of devices, theft of\nprivate or public information, or disclosure of activities and numbers are the\norder of the day. In terms of impact, cyber attacks are above the average risk,\nwhich include weapons of mass destruction, extreme weather events and water\ncrises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In\nMexico, 58% of CEOs do not feel confident about their preparation for\ncybersecurity. The incidents of cybersecurity that have an impact on the\nMexican economy exceeded 3 billion dollars in 2016. Cyber \u200b\u200battacks on Mexico\nare expected to increase due to the combination of the economic situation and\ngrowth of FDI and GDP. On the other hand, its strategic position and its links\nwith North America make Mexico an attractive target for espionage groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Infrastructure of cyber security in\nMexico.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The\nmain companies that are in charge of cybersecurity in the country are: Cisco\nTalos, Intel Security, Microsoft and IBM, in addition, the government also\ncontributes with laws on personal data regulation, fraud and\ntelecommunications. In 2017, the National Security Strategy for 2030 was\npublished, which seeks to develop a legal, cultural and social framework wich\nincludes knowledge, collaboration against cyber attacks and monitoring and measurements\nof companies and related interest groups. In addition, the new AMLO government\npromises to create a national cybersecurity agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mexico\nmust make several improvements in terms of dedicated institutional structures,\nsuch as a specialized agency of the public sector, certified under\ninternationally recognized standards. The digital transformation and the\nincrease in the connectivity of the industries and applications makes\ncybersecurity a key industry, due to its relevance and expectation of growth.\nDue to the increase in cyber attacks, better protection of users and businesses\nis required; however, Mexico faces a certain lack of awareness and incentives\nto invest in cybersecurity, even so, the industry is expected to continue\ngrowing, as well as the involvement of companies about their data and of their\nusers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The entry of industry 4.0 has left a large series of technological proposals to help companies to carry out their activities, however, has also brought a lot of risks.
