Security recommendations
3
To prevent unauthorized access to the device and/or network, observe the following
security recommendations.
General
• Check the device regularly to ensure that these recommendations and/or other
internal security policies are complied with.
• Evaluate the security of your location and use a cell protection concept with suitable
products ( https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity ).
• 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.
• No product liability will be accepted for operation in a non-secure infrastructure.
• Use VPN to encrypt and authenticate communication from and to the devices.
• For data transmission via a non-secure network, use an encrypted VPN tunnel (IPsec,
OpenVPN).
• Separate connections correctly (WBM, SSH etc.).
• Check the user documentation of other Siemens products that are used together with
the device for additional security recommendations.
• Using remote logging, ensure that the system protocols are forwarded to a central
logging server. Make sure that the server is within the protected network and check
the protocols regularly for potential security violations or vulnerabilities.
WLAN
• We recommend that you ensure redundant coverage for WLAN clients.
