4.8.7 SOFTNET Security Client
Description
The SOFTNET Security Client is a software application that serves as an integral part of the
Industrial Security concept to protect programmable controllers. This ensures security when
data is exchanged between programmable controllers and entire automation systems or
automation cells.
● The SOFTNET Security Client application is available as a VPN client for programming
devices, PCs and notebooks in an industrial environment. The application allows secure
client access via LAN or also via WAN to automation systems protected with SCALANCE
S functionality. For example, remote maintenance via the Internet.
● Protection of the data transfer from incorrect operator input, eavesdropping / espionage
and manipulation.
Communication is only possible between authenticated and authorized devices.
