Industry 4.0 and Cyber Security in Engineering Industry Cluster

Industry 6.0 is the convergence of various ideas, generating in the minds of leaders, scientists, predicators, and researchers. Industry 6.0 is one step further than Industry 4.0 and 5.0; every operation would be controlled by the human mind and performed by automated robots by covering all planetary boundaries. The objective of this study is to ascertain productivity increase due to the implementation of Industry 4.0 and cybersecurity; to study the implementation of Industry 4.0 and cybersecurity using business analytics techniques and to give suggestions on increasing productivity by cost minimization and profit maximization to the Tirupattur Engineering Cluster (TEC) in the Tirupattur district of Tamil Nadu. The methodology consists of the collection of primary and secondary data from TEC and the Industrial Training Institute, Vaniyambadi. The data was analyzed using descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, regression analysis and structural equation modelling. The study found that the TEC enterprises have been coordinating with each other to implement Industry 4.0 and cybersecurity, as well as Industry 5.0 and Industry 6.0 to compete in the global market, thereby reducing the cost of production and increasing productivity, turnover and profit.
