ARCHITECTURE, ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION

Multi-Signal Managed Detection and Response for Architecture, Engineering and Construction Companies

A lack of cyber awareness and limited cybersecurity industry guidance makes construction-related industries an easy target for cyber attacks. While physical security risks are the primary focus on job sites, the failure to address cyber risks and ensure data security can result in business disruption, unplanned costs and reputational damage if a breach occurs.

Get Started

Risk mitigation doesn't end at the physical job site

The architecture, engineering and construction industries are quickly becoming a lucrative target for cybercriminals due to the value of their data and the susceptible nature of their business operations. As a professional in this space, you are increasingly reliant on technology to share confidential & proprietary project data, required to connect remotely from job sites, and communicate with third-party supplier networks, many of whom are small businesses with limited or no IT security resources.

The top challenges architecture, engineering and construction related companies are facing include:

  • Limited understanding of cyber risk-based best practices
  • Lack of visibility into personal devices (BYOD) and potential exposure from mobile devices in the field
  • Lack of internal cybersecurity resources and expertise
  • Risk of integration and sharing data with supply chain partners
  • Lack of visibility into IT and OT assets
  • Technical capabilities to identify and contain threats
  • No proactive incident response plan

To protect your business, you need a robust cybersecurity plan and the ability to proactively detect, disrupt and remediate cyber threats.

Cybersecurity in Construction FAQ

What is a construction cybersecurity program?

Just as physical security is present at jobsites to prevent theft and vandalism, protection is also needed to prevent cyberattacks. A program for cybersecurity in the construction industry should include a robust cybersecurity plan and the ability to proactively detect, disrupt, and remediate cyber threats.

Why is cybersecurity for the construction industry important?

Cybersecurity in the construction industry is important because you are vulnerable to cyberattacks since you are reliant on technology for sharing confidential & proprietary project data and payment processing and funds transfer data, remote work from job sites, and third-party supplier network communications—often with small companies lacking in IT security. To protect your construction business, you need a robust cybersecurity plan and the ability to proactively detect, disrupt, and remediate cyber threats.
