Precision Manufacturing Corp: Aerospace Parts Production During Critical Contract Delivery
Quick Reference
- Organization: Industrial precision aerospace manufacturing facility, 850 employees (600 production floor workers), 80 production machines with air-gapped control networks requiring USB-based maintenance
- Key Assets at Risk: Worker safety systems (hazardous gas detection, emergency shutdown controls protecting 850 workers), Production control and industrial systems (air-gapped SCADA, CNC machines,β¦
- Business Pressure: 72 hours until aerospace contract delivery Fridayβmaximum capacity 24/7 operations, 150+ daily USB insertions for equipment maintenance, customer demanding production status confirmation
- Core Dilemma: Continue USB-based maintenance required for aerospace quality standards BUT allows malware propagation through air-gapped production systems, OR Halt USB use for containment BUT stops equipmentβ¦
