IT security guidelines
Siemens offers IT security mechanisms for its automation and drive product portfolio in order
to support the safe operation of the plant/machine. We recommend that you inform yourself
regularly on the IT security developments regarding your products. For information on this
topic, refer to: http://support.automation.siemens.com. Here, you can register for a product-
specific newsletter.
For the secure operation of a plant/machine, however, it is necessary to integrate the
automation components in a full IT security concept for the entire plant/machine that
represents the state of the art in IT technology. You can find information on this at:

Products used from other manufacturers should also be taken into account here.
