Industrial Security
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 (http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
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.
