Manufacturing organizations operate hybrid IT/OT environments where a cyberattack can shut down production lines, compromise industrial control systems, or expose proprietary process IP. The stakes are operational, financial, and increasingly regulatory.

A network outage for most businesses means lost productivity. In healthcare it means
disrupted care. The demands on your IT infrastructure — and your IT partner — are
categorically higher.
Industrial equipment operates for decades — running operating systems and firmware that cannot be patched and cannot be replaced on a software timeline. Security controls must work around these constraints.
Manufacturing process IP — proprietary formulations, tooling specifications, and production processes — is a primary espionage target. Nation-state actors specifically target defense and precision manufacturing firms.
A manufacturing operation is only as secure as its least-secure supplier with access to your systems. Third-party access management and vendor security assessments are regulatory requirements under CMMC.
BetterWorld Technology designs and manages your compliance program as a continuous service — not a one-time project. Your CMMC obligations are covered by the same managed security program that handles your 24/7 monitoring and incident response.
Operational technology — PLCs, SCADA, HMI systems — was never designed for network connectivity. As manufacturing systems connect to IT infrastructure and the internet, they introduce vulnerabilities that legacy security tools cannot address.
Defense manufacturing suppliers handling Controlled Unclassified Information must achieve CMMC Level 2 or Level 3. Non-compliance disqualifies organizations from DoD contracts — making certification a business-critical requirement.
Manufacturing is the most targeted sector for ransomware. Attackers exploit IT/OT convergence to reach production systems — demanding ransom under the pressure of halted operations and missed delivery commitments.
A complete managed IT and cybersecurity program purpose-built for clinical
environments, compliance obligations, and 24/7 operational demands.
Specialized assessment of your operational technology environment — identifying exposed systems, unpatched PLCs, unsegmented networks, and vulnerable HMI connections that standard IT security tools miss.
Gap assessment, remediation planning, and evidence generation for CMMC Level 2 and Level 3. Our vCISO team has guided defense manufacturing suppliers through the CMMC process — we know what assessors look for.
Continuous monitoring of IT systems with awareness of OT boundaries — detecting threats targeting production before they can pivot from IT into operational technology environments.
Third-party risk assessment for suppliers and subcontractors handling your controlled technical data. ITAR and EAR compliance documentation for defense and dual-use manufacturing operations.
We have been serving healthcare organizations since our founding. We understand the intersection of clinical operations, regulatory obligation, and cybersecurity risk that makes healthcare IT fundamentally different from every other industry.
Start the ConversationDocumented 110-control NIST 800-171 implementation with System Security Plan, Plan of Action, and evidence packages ready for C3PAO assessment.
Architecture consulting and implementation for proper IT/OT network segmentation — isolating production systems from general IT infrastructure.
IT controls documentation supporting ITAR compliance — access controls, export authorizations, and data handling procedures for controlled technical data.
Purpose-built IT and cybersecurity for the sectors that demand the highest standards of security, compliance, and reliability.
