2.2 Basic safety instructions
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 constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers 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 to the extent such a connection is necessary and only
when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are in place.
You can find more possible protective measures in the area of industrial security at Industrial
security (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens' products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure.
Siemens expressly recommends that product updates be applied as soon as they become
available and that only the latest product versions be used. Use of product versions that are no
longer supported, and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer's exposure to cyber
threats.
