Siemens SIMATIC NET SCALANCE W734-1 Operating Instructions Manual page 6

Introduction
1.1 Information on the Operating Instructions
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens' products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected
to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary
and only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are
in place.
Additionally, Siemens' guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into
account. For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented,
please visit

Siemens' products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure.
Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are available
and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no longer
supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customer's exposure to cyber
threats.
