Security recommendations
2
To prevent unauthorized access, note the following security recommendations.
General
• You should make regular checks to make sure that the device meets these
recommendations and/or other security guidelines.
• Evaluate your plant as a whole in terms of security. Use a cell protection concept with
suitable products ( https://www.industry.siemens.com/topics/global/en/industrial-
security/pages/default.aspx ).
• When the internal and external network are disconnected, an attacker cannot access
internal data from the outside. Therefore operate the device only within a protected
network area.
• For communication via non-secure networks use additional devices with VPN
functionality to encrypt and authenticate the communication.
• Terminate management connections correctly (WBM. Telnet, SSH etc.).
Physical access
• Restrict physical access to the device to qualified personnel.
• The memory card or the PLUG (C-PLUG, KEY-PLUG, security PLUG) contains
sensitive data such as certificates, keys etc. that can be read out and modified.
Software (security functions)
• Keep the firmware up to date. Check regularly for security updates of the product.
You will find information on this on the Internet pages "Industrial Security
( https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity )".
• Inform yourself regularly about security advisories and bulletins published by Siemens
ProductCERT ( https://www.siemens.com/cert/en/cert-security-advisories.htm ).
• Only activate protocols that you really require to use the device.
• Use the security functions such as address translation with NAT (Network Address
Translation) or NAPT (Network Address Port Translation) to protect receiving ports
from access by third parties.
• Restrict access to the device with a firewall or rules in an access control list (ACL -
Access Control List).
• If RADIUS authentication is via remote access, make sure that the communication is
within the secured network area or is via a secure channel.
• The option of VLAN structuring provides good protection against DoS attacks and
unauthorized access. Check whether this is practical or useful in your environment.
