ManuSec USA Celebrates Its 11th Edition in Chicago on October 21st-22nd 2026
Manufacturing is now the world’s most targeted industry. In the U.S., the threat is even more acute: manufacturers experience more ransomware incidents than the rest of the world combined, while production outages cost an average of $1.9 million per day. As operational and financial risks continue to rise, strengthening IT/OT security has become a business-critical priority.
Under the core theme of “Solidifying OT Security Fundamentals While Building Next-Gen Cyber Resilience,“ the 2026 program moves past simple perimeter defenses to bridge the gap between fundamental cyber hygiene and advanced autonomous defense. By attending, security leaders from America’s Aerospace & Defense, Machinery, Electrical, Food & Beverage, Automotive, Metals, Chemical, Pharma, Transportation Equipment manufacturing industries & more will acquire the tactical frameworks necessary to ensure continuous, minimum viable operations even during an active breach.
Grounded in this urgent reality, the 11th annual ManuSec USA summit brings together 150+ senior manufacturing security leaders, plant managers, and C-level executives to the Hyatt Regency Chicago this October 21-22. This condensed, two-day program provides the definitive playbook for security executives to mitigate financial risk, satisfy strict underwriting audits and defend American manufacturing against new and evolving cyber threats.

Automation promised to free security teams from the alert treadmill, but for many organizations, it created a new one. Join Dave Shackleford, SANS Instructor, on November 4, 2026 at 10:30 AM EST where he will share survey data from practitioners across industries on what the transition from automation to genuine agency actually looks like in 2026.
Specifically, he will speak to how agentic threats are landing on the radar, the barriers stalling SOC autonomy, and how teams are weighing the tradeoffs of letting AI act independently in production environments. Beyond the technology questions, the data also dives into how organizations plan to reshape their teams as AI absorbs some of the work that currently fills an analyst's day.
