October is Cyber Security Awareness Month—and there’s no better time to confront the digital dangers facing the corrugated and packaging industry. From ransomware and phishing to vulnerabilities lurking inside legacy systems and Operational Technology (OT), the risks are real—and they’re growing.
At
CorrExpo 2025, October 22-24 in Savannah, GA, the
Cyber Security in Corrugated & Packaging: Threats, Tech, & Tactics session will take you straight into the world of cyber defense, giving you the tools and strategies you need to protect your people, your systems, and your bottom line.
Why Cybersecurity Matters
Unlike other industries, corrugated and packaging operations rely on a complex mix of Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT). While IT systems safeguard data and communications, OT drives the machines that keep production running. A single breach—whether through a weak password or an outdated control system—can stop an entire plant in its tracks.
The Cybersecurity session, Tuesday, October 21 at 9:15am, will uncover these challenges, explore real-world attacks, and reveal the weak points often overlooked in the rush to keep production moving. Industry experts will walk you through the threats, risks, and emerging solutions shaping the cyber landscape including:
- Proven Strategies for prevention, incident response, and recovery
- Best Practices for employee training and building a strong culture of cyber hygiene
- Insights into Risk Management, including the role of cyber insurance
- The Future of Defense, where AI and machine learning help predict, detect, and neutralize threats before they spread
Moderator: Mike Kohler, Vice President, Kohler Coating
Speakers:
- Roftiel Constatine, Chief Information Security Officer, Barry-Wehmiller
- Tom Trunchi, IT Director, Jamestown Container
- Joe Bloomstine, Client Executive, HUB International
- Jason Hemingway, Cybersecurity Advisor, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
If you’re in IT, OT, plant operations, or executive leadership within the corrugated or packaging world, this is one session you can’t afford to skip. The risks you’ll hear about aren’t theoretical—they’re happening now. But the countermeasures you’ll learn? They’re actionable, battle-tested, and tailored for your world.
