FAQ

Edible oil production relies on complex, automated systems for extraction, purification, blending, and bottling—many of which are managed through SCADA/PLC and ERP platforms. These systems introduce a wide range of cyber threats:

Ransomware attacks

Disrupting crushing lines, degumming units, refining processes, or filling systems

Phishing attacks

Aimed at procurement officers, supply chain managers, or accounting teams

Breaches in ERP or MES

Systems affecting traceability, export documentation, and contract records

Exploits in SCADA/HMI

Systems used in deodorization, neutralization, or fractionation controls

IP theft

Of proprietary blends, supplier pricing models, or bottling specifications

Vendor-based vulnerabilities

In smart warehouse tools, transport scheduling systems, or third-party logistics platforms

Insecure network

Segmentation between IT and OT environments enabling full-plant compromise
