3.3 Data protection during remote maintenance
Task
Remote access is to be granted to the service technicians of two machine manufacturers for
the machines supplied by them. Access should be possible using the wired phone network
as well as the mobile wireless network. To ensure security, the company network should not
be used for this access.
Solution
SINEMA Remote Connect is used as the management platform for all remote accesses.
SINEMA RC Server ensures that only authorized persons have access through multi-factor
authentication and manages all VPN connections. The authentication takes places with
username and password or PKI smartcard. Each plant is protected against unauthorized
access through an Industrial Security Appliance SCALANCE SC646-2C.
