NIS2 and cybersecurity for the food industry
Kynexis Information security helps the food industry companies to make digital risks around production, quality, traceability, recipes, suppliers and continuity transparent and manageable. The research is in line with the actual production environment and quality processes.
Your context
Digital reliability as a basis for quality and delivery security
ERP, planning, recipes, quality information, traceability, production automation and external access together form an operational information chain. Reliable and available data support product quality, food safety and timely delivery.
Kynexis Information Security researches technology, processes and suppliers in conjunction. The approach makes it visible which digital risks can really affect production and quality and which improvements add the most value.
Focus areas
Reducing digital risks to manageable choices
The scope is tailored to the organisation, its societal mission, critical processes and digital dependencies.
Quality and traceability
Availability and integrity of recipes, quality data, batch information and registrations.
IT, OT and access
Segmentation, links, management, remote access, monitoring and restoration of critical environments.
Suppliers and Chain
agreements with IT, production, maintenance and chain partners about access, incidents and continuity.
Governance and digital resilience
Connecting digital risks to quality and business continuity
the board and executive management need to understand possible consequences for production, quality, traceability, supply and reputation. Kynexis Information Security translates technical and organisational findings into operational impact and clear decision points.
Depending on the demand, a baseline assessment, Cybersecurity Assessment, Cyber Security Audit or NIS2 GAP analysis fits. The scope can focus on production automation, external access, repair capability or suppliers.

Practical answers for the food industry
Are production automation and OT included?
Yes, when these components fall within the agreed scope. The assessment shall be subject to prior assessment in terms of production security and safety.
Can recipes and traceability be part of the research?
Yes. Availability, integrity, access management, changes, backup and restoration of critical production and quality information can be assessed.
Can Kynexis take NIS2 and chain requirements?
Yes. The legal position, mandatory care measures and requirements of customers or other chain partners can be examined in conjunction with their own risks.
In the food industry, digital incident production, quality and logistics can hit simultaneously. Therefore, assess IT, OT and chain dependencies as one business risk.
