With new global regulations enabling autonomous systems and cyber threats targeting 95% of factories, this session explores how aligned policies, clear safety frameworks, and robust cybersecurity are essential for Industry 4.0 success.

• How are ISO and UNECE rules creating a global baseline for safe autonomy?
• What safety standards ensure human–machine collaboration without downtime?
• How do zero-trust and ISA/IEC 62443 protect factories from cyberattacks?
• Why is sustainable cyber risk management vital for resilience?
• How can harmonised rules speed up autonomous adoption and build trust?
