6. IT security
IT security is a set of precautions you can take to prevent unauthorized personnel from
accessing MiR500. This section describes the main IT-security related risks and how to
minimize them when commissioning MiR500.
MiR500 communicates all data over the network that it is connected to. It is the
responsibility of the commissioner to ensure that it is connected to a secure network. MiR
recommends conducting an IT-security risk assessment before commissioning the robot.

6.1 Managing users and passwords
Managing your users and passwords is the main way you can control access to MiR500.
There are three default users with predefined passwords for you to start using. These are
described in the
MiR Robot Reference Guide
along with instructions to create new users,
user groups, and passwords. MiR advises you to:
•
Change the default password for all predefined users if you choose to continue to use
them. Make sure to choose a strong password since MiR500 does not enforce any
password rules nor expire the password.
•
Create new user groups if more levels of access are necessary.
•
Create dedicated user accounts under the relevant user group for each person accessing
MiR500, and ensure that the users change the password on their first sign-in. It is not
recommended to have several users share the same account.
•
Only enable users with a minimum level of access to use a pin code to sign in. Users with
a higher level of access are recommended to use a strong password to sign in instead.
6.2 Software security patches
To improve the security of MiR500, MiR supplies security patches to the operating system in
new MiR software update files. When you install a security patch, it takes approximately 10-
15 minutes longer to update a MiR product.
