List of Prominent Cyber Attacks ��Increasing frequency of attacks post-stuxnet in 2010.

Cyber Security: Implications for the Next-gen Enterprise

Threats to Integrated Enterprise•Integration of multiple enterprise disciplines

will increase organizational productivity and

enhance efficiency.

•But greater integration increases probability

for cyber attacks.

Impact on IP Devices Market•Risk of Cyber Security to impact growth and

adoption of IP-based field devices by the end-

user community.

•Increased threat on account of IP standard’s

high prevalence in the higher layers of

enterprise architecture.

Market Challenge for IA VendorsEntry of commercial IT vendors through the

channel of cyber security will influence

market dynamics of Industrial Automation

(IA). Greater competition for IA vendors

anticipated in the coming years.

Influence on Wireless Technology•Questions on safety and integrity of wireless

technology will be exacerbated by concerns

of cyber security.

•Cyber security will be a decisive factor in

growth of wireless technology in future

enterprises.
