A cyberattack on a production facility sounds like science fiction – until it happens. Ransomware attacks on OT environments have tripled over the past three years. What many do not know: Classical IT protection concepts do not work in production. This article explains how attackers proceed, why OT devices are particularly vulnerable – and what a clean OT backup means in an emergency.

Transparency instead of gut feeling:
Find out what costs arise from missing OT management – and how to reduce them in a targeted way.

PLUS4DATA is now ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 27001 certified – but what really matters is what we improved along the way.

No overview of PLC versions? Then the next issue is just one change away. Why versioning in OT is critical – and how you can systematically prevent risks and downtime.

More control, less effort: With eguide4DATA V1.6, you optimize your backup management, automate processes, and structure OT data more consistently – for noticeably greater efficiency in daily operations.

If the system comes to a standstill, every minute counts.

Learn how to instantly find the correct backup version in case of a failure, perform the restore within minutes, and significantly reduce unplanned downtime.

OT backups determine downtime or restart.
In the Expert Talk, Silvan Pfirrmann (PLUS4DATA) and Peter Lukesch (ONDESO) talk about real risks and practical solutions.

NIS2 introduces new requirements for production and OT systems. What matters is not backup alone, but whether systems can be restarted quickly and verifiably after incidents.

Automated OT backups protect industrial systems from downtime, risk, and costly disruptions.
