Stop Lateral Movement Before
It Reaches the Shop Floor
Industry 4.0 connectivity has created direct attack paths from enterprise IT to industrial control systems. ThreatBook detects lateral movement across connected manufacturing environments before it reaches production systems, with intelligence on APT groups specifically targeting industrial manufacturers for IP theft, and supply chain security for AI tooling adoption in production workflows.
Industry 4.0 Connectivity Created
Attack Paths That Didn't Exist Before
Connected manufacturing environments have fundamentally changed the threat landscape for industrial security. What was once an air-gapped shop floor is now connected to enterprise IT, and every connection that enables production efficiency also creates a potential attack path. The adversaries targeting manufacturers are not opportunistic, they're conducting systematic industrial espionage campaigns against specific companies for specific intellectual property.
Exposure
Connected manufacturing systems create new attack paths, a compromised engineering workstation can become a pivot point into industrial control systems, disrupting production with physical consequences. Industry 4.0 integration has connected shop floor PLCs, CNC machines, and quality systems to enterprise networks in ways that traditional network security tools were not designed to monitor at the IT/OT boundary.
Theft
Product designs, manufacturing processes, supply chain data, and competitive intelligence are high-value targets for industrial espionage. APT groups specifically focus on automotive and electronics manufacturers in APAC, stealing CAD files, production specifications, and materials research that represents years of R&D investment. These campaigns operate with long dwell times, often remaining undetected until the stolen IP appears in a competitor's products.
Workflows
Manufacturers adopting AI automation tools face supply chain risk from unvetted AI Agent Skills, malicious code embedded in productivity tools that can exfiltrate CAD files, production data, and credentials from engineering environments. It is already happening: the "ClawHavoc" campaign embedded 1,000+ malicious packages in public repositories targeted at developer and engineering workflows.
Protecting Manufacturers Across
Automotive, Electronics, and Consumer Goods
ThreatBook is trusted by manufacturers across automotive, display technology, and consumer electronics who understand that connected production environments require security tools built for the precision manufacturing environments demand. TDP detects lateral movement across the network at a false positive rate below 0.03%.
ATI tracks APT groups that specifically target industrial manufacturers for IP theft and supply chain attacks, providing early warning intelligence on adversary reconnaissance activity before it converts to network compromise. SafeSkill addresses the emerging risk of malicious AI Agent Skills in manufacturing AI applications, intercepting threats in development and production automation pipelines before they can exfiltrate engineering data.

- ATI tracks 2,000+ adversary groups with specific coverage of APT actors targeting automotive, electronics, and precision manufacturing for intellectual property theft campaigns
- Zero-day detection via ML and cloud sandbox catches novel malware used in manufacturing-targeted espionage campaigns, including custom tooling designed to evade signature-based detection
- SafeSkill validates AI Agent Skills before they reach production pipelines, protecting engineering environments where CAD files, production specifications, and process IP are at risk
- 400,000+ vulnerability intelligence entries help manufacturing security teams prioritise patching across complex OT/IT hybrid environments without disrupting production schedules
Three Capabilities Built for
Connected Manufacturing Security
TDP monitors network traffic identifies lateral movement attempts, compromised host indicators, and C2 callbacks before they penetrate the OT layer. With a false positive rate below 0.03%, every alert reaching your manufacturing security team represents a confirmed threat, not a tuning backlog item.
ATI tracks APT groups that specifically target industrial manufacturers for intellectual property theft, automotive designs, semiconductor processes, electronics manufacturing IP, and supply chain data. With 2,000+ adversary groups tracked and 20,000+ APT incidents in the intelligence database, ThreatBook provides the early warning intelligence to detect adversary reconnaissance before network compromise occurs.
SafeSkill secures AI tooling adoption in manufacturing workflows, intercepting malicious Agent Skills before they can exfiltrate files or engineering credentials. With 100,000+ pre-validated Skills in the whitelist and multi-dimensional detection covering metadata analysis, code logic review, LLM intent auditing, and sandbox execution, SafeSkill protects the engineering environments where your most valuable IP resides.
From Shop Floor Exposure
to Contained Incident
ThreatBook TDP, ATI, and SafeSkill work in sequence across connected manufacturing environments, from intelligence-driven early warning through network-level lateral movement detection to AI tooling supply chain protection.
ATI feeds are configured for manufacturing sector relevance, prioritising adversary groups known to target your specific manufacturing category (automotive, electronics, consumer goods), relevant vulnerability intelligence for industrial systems, and threat actor TTPs associated with IP theft campaigns targeting your sector. SafeSkill is integrated into AI development and automation workflows.
TDP monitors continuously using ML behavioral detection to identify lateral movement within enterprise networks. Every detection is automatically enriched with ATI adversary context, enabling security teams to understand whether detected activity matches known APT campaigns targeting the manufacturing sector.
SafeSkill screens every AI Agent Skill before it executes in engineering or production environments, applying multi-dimensional analysis across metadata, code logic, LLM intent, URL threat intelligence, and sandbox execution. Malicious Skills are blocked before they can access engineering file systems, credentials, or production data. Audit logs capture all screening decisions for security review.
Confirmed threats trigger containment on the IT side, isolating compromised engineering workstations, blocking C2 communications, and feeding IOCs into network security controls, before the adversary can pivot to industrial systems or complete the IP exfiltration that represents the real objective of manufacturing-targeted espionage campaigns.
What Manufacturing Security Teams
Achieve with ThreatBook
TDP's ML-based boundary detection identifies lateral movement from enterprise IT toward connected manufacturing systems before it reaches industrial control systems. Early-stage detection at the IT/OT boundary is the difference between a contained enterprise IT incident and a shop floor disruption event, with all the production and supply chain consequences that entails.
ATI's 2,000+ adversary group tracking, with firsthand coverage of APT groups targeting automotive and electronics manufacturers, gives security teams early warning intelligence on campaigns before they reach exfiltration stage. Understanding which adversary groups are actively targeting your manufacturing category allows targeted defensive measures rather than reactive incident response.
SafeSkill enables manufacturing teams to adopt AI automation tools without accepting unvalidated supply chain risk. Every external AI Agent Skill is screened before execution in engineering environments, protecting the CAD files, production specifications, and process IP that represent the most valuable data in a manufacturer's environment from exfiltration via malicious tooling.
