  Robotic and digitization risks refer to the potential negative consequences that can arise from the use of robots and digital technologies in various industries, which include experimental physics control systems. Risks include the compromising or malfunctioning of these systems, resulting in injury, equipment damage, loss of data or disruptions to critical infrastructure and services. Mitigating these risks involves taking proactive steps to reduce the likelihood of negative consequences and minimize their impact if they do occur. A comprehensive risk management approach that incorporates a combination of technical, organizational, and cultural strategies can help mitigate the potential risks through the implementation of the following strategies which will be discussed in this presentation: Regular maintenance and testing of robotic systems; Implementation of strong cyber security measures; Employee training and awareness programs; Adoption of industry standards and best practices; Developing contingency plans and backup systems; Establishing clear ethical and social guidelines.
