"In a recent paper, Indiana University Professor Scott Shackelford examines the cyber risk in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), including security implications in the smart factory revolution and associated policy implications. Although there has been progress in some areas including making attacks on civilian critical infrastructure, like smart factories, off limits, there is still much to be done. According to Shackelford, several options exist for IIoT: self-regulation/cyber due diligence, insurance as well as proposed federal policies like the IoT Cybersecurity Act of 2017, Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights and the Active Cyber Defense Certainty Act."
