how is the digital transformation of the industry? from Jack prabha's blog

To begin with, it is interesting to delimit that, by digital transformation, we must understand a phenomenon of adoption of technologies that are transforming the experiences of consumers, workers and entrepreneurs around the world.

Thus, the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, more specifically, concerns the use of cyber-physical systems in industrial production. It is the set of software and applications that interact between entities, things and humans; between companies, people and devices.

This movement has also been called “Industry 4.0”, or “The Fourth Industrial Revolution”.

It is important to understand that it is not just about using Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services, Cloud Computing , Big Data, etc. in isolation.

The digital transformation takes place with the combination of these diverse technologies to deliver the activities that cyber-physical systems will demand in the industry.

This is already happening even though we didn't realize it; and it will happen more and more emphatically. The point is that there are still few companies that have realized this.

According to a report by consultancy IDC , about 75% of Latin American companies are still in the primary stages of digital transformation (either resisting the phenomenon or already exploring in a timid, unconscious way). The other 25% are divided between those that can already be considered digital transformers (already obtained synergy between IT and business) and digital disruptors (innovate at an advanced level in the digital environment).

In short, the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry is already a reality and comes to bring gains of scale, facilitate development (of products, services and resources), reduce costs and a series of other advantages that we will see in the following topics.

The Information Systems Security Engineer will research and investigate the potential impact of new threats and exploits. The engineer will guide the Information Security team in examining and developing networks security solutions.
