Configure
Change the default
password *
Help reduce unauthorized access. Default account settings are
oftenthe source of unauthorized access by malicious users.
Disable meter
configuration methods *
Limiting configuration options and providing read-only access
reduces the attack surface of the meter.
Disable webpages and
time sync sources *
Disable webpages to deny a web browser to access the meter
data. If your meter can be accessed by a web browser outside
your protected network, a malicious user could intercept
communications.
Disable the ability to modify the meter’s time source to help protect
against disguised communication from an unknown source as
being trusted and possibly invalidating timestamps.
Define lockouts and event
timeouts *
Lock accounts after a predefined number of unsuccessful login
attempts. Lockouts help reduce brute-force password attacks from
succeeding.
Limit user access*
Limit user access to the minimum, least privilege level of access
needed to perform their job functions.
Revoke user privileges when no longer needed due to role
change, transfer, or termination.
Edit meter access event
logging *
Edit the default meter access event priorities that are logged to the
event log to meet your reporting requirements.
