2.4 Cybersecurity
To protect against cybersecurity threats, it is necessary to continuously monitor and

and provides suitable measures for different types of risks. SICK's products and solu‐

NOTE
The product is a programmable device. The respective programmer is therefore respon‐
sible for his/her programming work and the resultant operation of the device. The
liability and warranty of SICK AG is limited to the device specification (hardware func‐
tionality and any programming interfaces) according to the agreed conditions. SICK AG

Interrupting or modifying the device or SICK software will invalidate any warranty claims
