Data Recovery and Secure Backup Solutions for Manufacturers

Protect production data, restore critical operational files, and safeguard sensitive business information.

Manufacturing Data Is an Attractive Target for Cybercriminals

The technology that drives modern manufacturing is in a near-constant state of evolution, and the pace of change will only increase in coming years. But with the advent of new technology comes new cybersecurity risks. Balancing the needs of data security and technological innovation is essential to meeting the ever-changing security challenges of the future.

Key areas of vulnerability include greater capital investments in intellectual property (IP), effective management of industrial control systems, and expanding device connectivity. A security assessment of the manufacturing sector found that IP is considered a manufacturer’s most valuable asset, and the thing most often targeted by cybercriminals.

Protecting the data that fuels innovation and drives the manufacturing sector requires a comprehensive and layered approach to security. Encrypted hardware, remote drive management, and hardened endpoint protection form the core of SecureData’s integrated approach to complete data security for the manufacturing sector.

Secure Drives for Manufacturing Operations

Manufacturers rely on sensitive and business-critical data, including CAD files, product designs, machine configurations, ERP records, supplier information, quality control data, and production schedules. A lost device, data breach, or ransomware attack can disrupt operations, expose intellectual property, delay production, and create costly downtime.

Secure external hard drives and secure flash drives help protect manufacturing data with encrypted offline storage. By keeping backup copies disconnected from the network, organizations can reduce the risk of ransomware spreading to every copy of critical operational data. These drives also support secure file transfer, remote engineering access, vendor collaboration, and data-at-rest protection.

Our managed and unmanaged encrypted storage solutions help manufacturers safeguard data wherever it is stored, shared, or transported. For IT and security teams that need centralized oversight, remote management options can help enforce access policies, manage devices, and maintain control across facilities and users.

Protect intellectual property, reduce operational risk, and strengthen manufacturing data security with our award-winning SecureDrive® and SecureUSB® encrypted drives.

Offline Backup Planning for Manufacturing Data

Manufacturing environments depend on reliable access to engineering, production, operational, and administrative data. We work with your team to map where critical data lives, evaluate backup gaps, define recovery priorities, build a tailored backup strategy, and deploy the right storage process. We also perform restore testing to verify that backup copies can be used when production continuity is at risk.

A key part of this approach is the use of encrypted offline backups. By keeping protected copies disconnected from the network, manufacturers can limit the impact of ransomware, accidental deletion, account compromise, file corruption, equipment failure, and unauthorized changes.

Manufacturing data to consider for offline protection includes:

  • CAD, CAM, product design files, engineering drawings, schematics, and technical specifications
  • CNC programs, machine setup files, tooling data, and production parameters
  • PLC, HMI, SCADA configurations, industrial control data, and automation settings
  • ERP, MRP, MES, production management data, work orders, schedules, and job records
  • Bills of materials, routing information, inventory, warehouse, and logistics data
  • Quality assurance records, inspection data, test results, certifications, and nonconformance reports
  • Supplier, vendor, purchasing records, customer orders, contracts, and fulfillment documentation
  • Preventive maintenance records, equipment logs, asset data, and service histories
  • Proprietary processes, formulas, recipes, intellectual property, and trade secrets
  • Safety, compliance, audit documentation, regulatory records, and training files
  • Finance, payroll, accounting files, HR records, and administrative documents
  • System images, recovery keys, passwords, access records, backup catalogs, and critical IT documentation
