Protected in every aspect - Defense in Depth
Industrial Security components from Siemens are specifically optimized for use in automation technology and meet the special requirements of Industrial Communication networks.

To protect industrial networks and ensure secure remote access, Siemens offers a wide range of products with integrated security functions (Security Integrated). These include the Industrial Security Appliances SCALANCE S, the Industrial Routers SCALANCE M for wired and mobile wireless networks (4G/5G), and the security communication processors for SIMATIC S7 controllers.

These products support a stateful inspection firewall and also secure VPN communication (Virtual Private Network) to protect against unauthorized access, data espionage, and manipulation.

All devices can be configured in the TIA Portal, enabling consistent end-to-end security engineering. With the SINEC software solutions, it is also possible to monitor, manage, and configure complex industrial networks, including firewall rules (SCALANCE S), centrally and around the clock, including in security-related areas.

Network security – communicate securely in industrial networks

As the integration of IT and OT enviroments in companies progress, protecting automation networks from unauthorized access becomes increasingly important. With the increasing connection of process networks and office networks, the protection of automation is becoming more important, especially during the operational phase. The data transfer between the office and plant network should be monitored and controlled. Segmentation and encapsulation of OT systems are necessary. The configuration of the firewall and the management of the firmware need to be centralized.

System integrity – protect your automation systems

Increasing Demand for Security (audit trail): Unintentional operating errors or deliberate manipulations jeopardize the plant security and must therefore be avoided. Additionally, there are specific requirements for traceability, which include documenting operations and changes. This includes recording what changes were made, when, and by whom. Furthermore, regulations and requirements, such as those of the FDA, must be complied with.
