AI-Powered Cybersecurity Shield for Industrial Robots and Automated Manufacturing Systems

digitalPilotedTRL 6

Imagine your factory robots have their own digital immune system, just like humans have one to fight off viruses. Instead of relying on general computer security, this system is built specifically for the way robots move and talk. It spots weird behavior in real-time and stops hackers from taking control of the machinery.
