The security concept of the R&S

against uncontrolled access and changes. All provided security services require that
you enter the security password.
Provided security services are:
●

–
USB storage

ment
–
Volatile mode
that prevents information to be written to the internal memory
permanently.
–
Sanitizing
that prevents the instrument from leaving a secure environment with
stored user information.
–
Annotation
frequency and amplitude prevent reading the display.
–
Secure Update Policy
check that verifies the integrity and origin of the firm-
ware package to be installed.
