As physical security systems become increasingly connected, who is responsible for cybersecurity? This was a key theme of the panel discussion I had the pleasure of taking part in at the Skydd security trade show in Stockholm on October 22. Together with fellow industry professionals, Joel Sahlen and Robert Stenlund, we explored how cyber risks can be managed and how responsibilities should be shared among manufacturers, system integrators and customers. Cameras, intercoms and access control are increasingly connected and integrated, raising cybersecurity risks. Cyber threats target networks, software, user accounts and integrations, making it essential to consider the security of the entire connected ecosystem. With the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) placing greater emphasis on manufacturers’ cybersecurity responsibilities, this is becoming an increasingly important topic for the industry. We as manufacturers need to go beyond our traditional responsibilities. Building secure products is essential, but we should also make it easier for customers to secure and manage them throughout their lifecycle. For example, making device logs easier to integrate into existing IT security monitoring systems and supporting defense in depth through measures such as virtual patching, which can help protect systems during the time between patch availability and deployment. For more on virtual patching, see link in the first comment. Security is a shared responsibility. Manufacturers, system integrators and customers need to collaborate, understand their respective roles and work together to strengthen security across the entire ecosystem. What do you see as the biggest challenges in securing connected security systems, and how is your organization addressing them?
