The Essential IT Audit Checklist for Manufacturing Plants in Manufacturing Hubs

Why Factories Need IT Audits

Many textile and manufacturing mills in manufacturing hubs rely on legacy hardware and outdated local networks. A single ransomware attack or disk failure can halt production lines, leading to missed export shipments and massive financial losses.

Checklist Items

1. **Data Backups:** Ensure daily automated backups are stored offsite/cloud-based.
2. **Network Segmentation:** Separate office Wi-Fi from factory IoT machine networks to prevent malware spread.
3. **UPS & Power Redundancy:** Protect network switches and servers from electrical fluctuations.
