Abstract
Industry 4.0 and Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) is revolutionising the way companies manufacture, improve, and distribute products. While incorporation of digital technologies and advanced automation has led to optimized processes and new levels of efficiencies, they have also thrown open the Challenges of cyber security and data protection. Continuously evaluating the effectiveness of implemented cyber security Processes and technology to protect, detect and respond to potential cyber security incidents and alerts are a must. Considering the changing cyber security landscape, making the organization more resilient against the potential cyber incidents is critical. This study is aiming to provide insights into the designing an information security and data protection organisation for a major steel manufacturing company. Firstly, we define the evolving threat and regulatory landscape and the changing role of information security and data protection with the advent of IIOT. Secondly, we focus on the parameters to consider while designing the organisation for information security and data protection (ISDP). Thirdly we discuss the structured way in which the final organization structure for ISDP is arrived at and the expected deliverables of the team.
