Introduction

Security information

Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the

secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.

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 only form one element of such a concept.

Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines

and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the

enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security

measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.

Additionally, Siemens' guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into

account. For more information about industrial security, please visit

Siemens' products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more

secure. Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to

always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported,

and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer's exposure to cyber threats.
