With the adoption of Building Information Modeling, drones, robotics, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and cloud-based project management systems, today’s construction companies are deeply reliant on technology and data. This digital expansion has introduced new vulnerabilities, making the construction sector an increasingly attractive target for cybercriminals.
