Acuity Controls nLight ECLYPSE - External Factors for Security

External Factors
Install Controllers in a Secure Location
Ensure that the ECLYPSE controller is installed in a physically secure location, under lock and key. Through physical ac-
cess, an attacker can take over the controller to do with it what they please.
For example, the reset button can be used to reset the controller to its factory default settings. If FIPS 140-2 mode has
been enabled on the controller, resetting a controller to its factory default settings will turn FIPS 140-2 mode off.
Make Sure that Controllers are Behind a VPN
For off-site connections, ensure that users access the controllers through a Virtual Private Network (VPN). This helps to
prevent an attack through eavesdropping on the communications channel to steal user credentials.
