Abstract

The concept of Industry 4.0 is based on intelligent networking of machines and other production systems using advanced information and communication technologies. Through the use of advanced information and communication technology, factories become increasingly exposed to cyber attacks and threats, which aim at the loss of data necessary for the development of production processes, and indirectly also the slowing down of the production process, while in some cases it results in damage to the equipment being used. By analyzing the impact on information and communication technologies, it is possible to develop a preventive system of cybernetic influences and thereby ensure a certain protection of the process.

The aim of this paper is to familiarize with the basic activities and technologies of cyber security in the implementation of the concept of Industry 4.0. The paper contains an analysis of the European report on cyber security, as well as proposed solutions for protection against cyber attacks in the industry.

The forms of cyber threats and the ways of their use are explained in more detail using industrial security standards that specify the ways and methods of cyber protection in different spheres of activity.
