Security information

Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support
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 constitute one element of such a concept.
Operators of the charging station 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 insofar such a connection is
necessary, and only when appropriate safety measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network
segmentation) are in place.
Additional information on industrial safety measures can be found under
(https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens' products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends applying product updates as soon as they are available
and using 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.
