Industrial security
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines
and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement
– and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens products and solutions only represe
nt one component of such a
concept.
The customer is responsible for preventing unauthorized access to its plants, systems,
machines and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to
the enterprise network or the internet if and to
the extent necessary and with appropriate
security measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.
Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into
account. For more information about industrial sec
urity, please visit:

Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly rec
ommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to
always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported,
and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.
