Why Manufacturing Systems Get Breached
Manufacturing is now one of the most attacked sectors in the world, and the reasons are straightforward. Factories and industrial operators sit on a uniquely valuable mix of assets: production systems, intellectual property, proprietary designs, ERP and MES platforms, supplier integrations, OT and ICS environments, IoT sensors, robotics, and the APIs tying it all together. Customers expect on-time delivery and product integrity. Attackers expect cracks. Manufacturing environments combine decades-old industrial systems with aggressive digital transformation, sprawling supplier networks, and round-the-clock production where every hour of downtime translates directly into lost revenue, creating perfect conditions for weaknesses to slip through unnoticed.
Ethiack validates exploitability across manufacturing IT, OT, and supply chain environments continuously, with proof-of-exploit on every confirmed risk.

How Ethiack Secures Manufacturing and Industry
Hackian tests continuously across hybrid IT and OT environments. It chains attack paths, adapts to industrial context, and delivers proof-of-exploit for every confirmed risk without disrupting production.
- Hackian tests continuously across IT and OT environments, triggered by new assets, infrastructure changes, and threat intelligence updates.
- Hackian validates attack paths spanning corporate IT, operational technology, and connected supply chains — confirming what is actually exploitable, not just theoretically risky.
- Full coverage across ERP and MES platforms, supplier portals, customer-facing systems, internal admin tools, APIs, IoT fleets and industrial integrations
- Intelligent enough to detect logic flaws, chained exploits and operational exposures that traditional scanners can't see
- Human ethical hacking expertise comes on top to deliver unmatched quality
- Retesting included, so fixes are verified quickly without extra cost or scheduling delays
- .01Intellectual property and proprietary design exposure
- .02ERP, MES and production system vulnerabilities
- .03OT, ICS and SCADA misconfigurations affecting production lines
- .04API vulnerabilities across supplier, logistics and customer integrations
- .05Authentication and access control weaknesses across corporate and plant systems
- .06Privilege escalation between IT, OT and engineering network domains
- .07Ransomware-enabling exposures across legacy industrial systems
- .08IoT and connected device misconfigurations on the factory floor

It's been very useful to identify assets we didn't even know we had. You've found multiple assets that were completely hidden from us.
- Francisco VazPlasfil
We really like the product and I can tell you that it is important to have this tool. Excelent information about our security flaws.
- Rui Pereira, Aegon Santander Portugal
Best service in this category. I use Ethiack to perform security tests and get a complete overview of our company's critical assets. This product has made vulnerability management so efficient and straightforward, allowing us to focus on and optimize resources. Not to mention the excellent support and promptness . Can't recommend it enough. - Luis Valente, Sonae MC
I’ve been genuinely impressed by Ethiack's work. Unlike traditional point-in-time audits, they provide continuous security testing, which has given us a lot of peace of mind by catching vulnerabilities in real-time. - Pedro Zeferino, NOS
We have lots of security solutions, but I look at Ethiack first, because I know that when Ethiack alerts us, it’s always valid and most probably serious. - Pedro Cunha, Broadvoice
Before Ethiack, it wasn't easy to deal with all the asks and requests coming from clients. Now, Ethiack checks all our landscape and tests every potential entry point. - Luis Gravato, Sumol Compal
It's been very useful to identify assets we didn't even know we had. You've found multiple assets that were completely hidden from us. - João Annes, ANA Aeroportos
Ethiack's combination of AI pentesting and human expertise brought a unique perspective to our security challenges. Their continuous monitoring of our attack surface and in-depth manual testing of our internal systems have transformed how we approach cybersecurity. Ethiack teaches us to think like attackers, making us better equipped to handle threats proactively. - Carlos Faria, AnovaEthiack was able to find vulnerabilities that no one had previously found before. We are more secure now.
- Nuno Ferreira, Leroy Merlin
We always maximize our use of Ethiack. Always!

It's extremely important for us to know everything about our attack surface, and you've managed to find multiple assets that were completely unaware to us. - André Araújo, Cegid
The way Ethiack incorporates EASM with AI Pentesting has brought us simplicity and proactivity in solving large-scale problems. As a group with so many companies and exposed assets, doing this work manually was simply impossible. The main transformation was the gaining a complete view on our surface, which we previously lacked. What we have publicly exposed, their vulnerabilities, and our impact in the cyberspace. - Sergio Quental, Bluepharma
Great product. Having the ability to calculate the ROI of Ethiack is perfect, as it makes board conversations much easier. - Silvio Mello, Jumia
Ethiack brings lots of value to Jumia. We launched a Honey Pot to test your capabilities, and you exploited it in under 10 minutes. - Francisco Vaz, Plasfil
We really like the product and I can tell you that it is important to have this tool. Excelent information about our security flaws. - André Alves, ComplianceWiseEthiack remains our stalwart guardian, upholding the integrity of our digital infrastrcuture. Its real-time monitoring and comprehensive testing ensure no vulnerability goes unnoticed. Ethiack's strategic insights allow us to prioritize actions, take proactive measures fast, and optimize resources.
- Wagner Caixeta, BaladAPP
We continuously receive reports on vulnerabilities, including detailed guides on exploitation and mitigation. Learning how attacks happen allows us to develop products with greater security. We had a massive transfer of knowledge from the high proficiency of the hackers assigned to us. I highly recommend it.
