CYBER-SECURE
T
he topic of cybersecurity seems to be constantly in
the news. So far this year, the biggest headline was the
Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack in May, which
cost the operator $4.4 million in addition to social and
political ramifications and exposed serious vulnerabilities in
the oil and gas industry.
Like their larger upstream cousins, lubricant manufacturers
are also vulnerable to data attacks and theft. The
major concerns for manufacturers include safeguarding
customer information and protecting intellectual property
rights. " Whether that intellectual property is related to
pricing, product formulation or the recipe for how to blend
the lubricants, those are the things that make or break a
company, that give you a competitive advantage, " said Celso
Pierre, general manager, North America, for Motul USA
Inc. " A breach that leads to exposure in those areas can be
detrimental to any manufacturer. "
Breaches can result from email phishing schemes that,
when activated, launch malware, viruses and ransomware

that threatens to destroy your data unless a fee is paid. They
also can be the result of something much more mundane.
THE WEAKEST LINK
" Most people think of cybersecurity as protecting against
network breaches from someone on the outside, " said Sean
W. O'Donnell, chairman of Datacor Inc. " Someone hacks
your system and now can see your data and take your data.
Of course, that's something all manufacturers have to worry
about. But that's not the most significant kind of threat. "
" In our experience, the weakest link tends to be the
people themselves rather than the system, " noted Aries
Aquitania, vice president of sales for Olyslager North America.
For example, it's not uncommon for people to rely on
predictable passwords that they use across multiple systems.
Such practices offer intruders an open door. Aquitania recommends
instead the use of password-manager applications
that create and safely store strong passwords, so users don't
have to choose something they'll remember easily.
