Deciphering standards for cybersecurity in Industry 4.0: Advisory AI for cybersecure IIoT

Summary:

Industry 4.0 (I4.0) constitutes a paradigm shift in
industrial production methodologies, primarily characterized by the integration of Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT). This fusion is anticipated to yield substantial improvements in cost efficiency, sustainability, and operational flexibility. Nevertheless, it concurrently introduces a spectrum of cybersecurity challenges. Moreover, the Industrial Internet of
Things (IIoT) employs technologies such as 5G, edge computing, and artificial intelligence (AI) to facilitate real-time automation and decision-making, thereby engendering highly interconnected systems that are susceptible to emerging risks. The rapid integra-
tion of IT, OT, and IIoT technologies enlarges the attack surface, making robust cybersecurity standards essential to safeguard critical infrastructure and maintain operational continuity. This paper presents an application based on Large Language Models for simplified cybersecurity compliance.
