NOTICE
Operating system can be hacked via USB or Ethernet
The Linux operating system used in the leak detector is not updated automatically and
can therefore contain security vulnerabilities. This vulnerability may be exploited
through the Ethernet and USB interfaces of the leak detector to provide unauthorized
access to the system.
► Ensure that no unauthorized person has access to these interfaces, for example by
using a USB port / Ethernet port lock.
► In order not to jeopardize the security of your company network, never connect the
leak detector directly to the public Internet. This is applies to connections over
WLAN as well as over Ethernet.
► However, if you want to access the web interface of the leak detector remotely, we
recommend an encrypted Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection. However, we
cannot assume any guarantee for the security of VPN connections, which are
provided by third parties.
You can connect a barcode scanner or a USB flash drive via the two USB 2.0
interfaces.
