The number of people who use the Internet daily is steadily increasing. It makes daily chores easier and faster to do, but it also increases the danger of cyberattacks. Web-based solutions are frequently used to connect with manufacturing process monitoring, management, and supply chain communication in contemporary manufacturing systems and under Industry 4.0. Cross-Site Scripting assaults are one of the most widespread cyberattacks (XSS) forms. XSS attacks are examined in this study to provide a good foundation for attack simulation. The simulation was carried out with the help of the BeEF XSS framework. A basic HTML web page was developed to construct the malicious script for the simulation. The simulation data were gathered and evaluated to provide guidelines for preventing XSS attacks on end-users and Industry 4.0-like systems. This study provides reliable recommendations for improving end-user resilience against XSS attacks, which can help to mitigate the harmful impact of such attacks on Industry 4.0 systems.
