Think Your Engineering Data Is Safe? Think Again.
Is Your Engineering Firm’s Cybersecurity Truly 100% Secure?
Join our weekly briefing to find out — every Tuesday at 2:00 PM EST
If a high-profile manufacturer can be taken offline by a sophisticated ransomware campaign, the lesson is clear: nobody is immune. Engineering and manufacturing firms hold some of the most sensitive intellectual property on the planet — CAD models, PDM vaults, ERP records — and those systems need defenses designed for engineering realities.
Join Jamie Busic from our hosting partner Virtual Sprout and Tanner Knight from Converge / EpiGrid every Tuesday at 2:00 PM EST for a concise, real-world briefing focused exclusively on cybersecurity for engineering and manufacturing organizations.
What we cover
Each weekly session breaks down real breach examples and the outcomes that followed, then translates those lessons into practical steps you can implement right away. Topics rotate and include:
-
Real incident case studies (how attackers got in, what they stole, and how organizations responded)
-
The three-part defense framework: Prevent → Detect → Recover
-
Engineering-specific concerns: CAD/PDM protection, ERP/database integrity, workstation caches, and backup hardening
-
Rapid recovery strategies: cloud failover, immutable backups, and tested DR runbooks
-
Actionable options you can adopt immediately — from policy & segmentation to managed hosting and Backup as a Service
Typical format: a short, focused presentation followed by a live Q&A so you can bring your toughest questions.

Who should attend
This briefing is designed for engineering leaders, CAD/PDM administrators, IT managers who support manufacturing, operations leaders, and anyone responsible for protecting design and production data. If your team designs, manages, or builds physical products, these briefings are for you.
