This presentation consists of highlights from an interview with Peter Thorne, the Director at Cambashi, an independent industry analyst firm based in Cambridge, U.K. which provides market insights on the use of IT in the manufacturing, energy, utilities and construction industries. With the explosion of the Internet of Things (IoT), Embedded software security is a top concern for a growing number of manufacturing companies and their software engineers. The worldwide market for embedded security software is forecasted to rise to $2.95 billion by 2019 at a growth rate of 17.9%. With smarter, more connected products constantly hitting the market, manufacturing companies are likely to see a higher amount of product safety and security problems in the future. And according to Peter, there is no easy resolution as security is extremely difficult to build into today’s connected products.

Director of Cambashi
Introducing Special Guest:
Peter Thorne is director at Cambashi, a Cambridge, England-based independent industry analyst firm.
Peter’s research focuses on the business needs of engineering and manufacturing organizations, and
the way these needs are addressed by information and communications technology. His client
assignments include strategic, forecasting, and segmentation projects including the role of industry
networks; tools and processes for product development and introduction; and focused analysis of the
market for systems engineering and embedded software development tools. Peter has applied
information technology to engineering and manufacturing enterprises for more than 30 years, holding
development, marketing and management positions with both user and vendor organizations.
