The SCALANCE S Firewall and VPN appliances protect industrial networks and automation systems by segmenting the network and establishing secure communication channels. As a part of the “Defense in Depth” Cybersecurity concept, SCALANCE S protects devices and networks in discrete manufacturing and in the process industry and helps create a flexible cell protection concept.
Whether the goal is cell protection, a demilitarized zone (DMZ), authenticated access via VPN or dynamic firewall rules, SCALANCE S Industrial Security Appliances protect your automation network against many different threat to suit your needs, thanks to a large portfolio of security mechanisms that can be used in combination. In conjunction with comprehensive protection measures, this will build up effective defense against unintentional system accesses or targeted attacks.
Industrial Firewall Appliances offer firewall performance of up to 750 Mbit/s and enable secure access between separate network segments using a bridge or routed firewall. Dynamic firewall rules allow temporary network accesses to be granted as required. The connection can be made via 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet ports and over fiber optic for large distances (up to 200 km). In addition, the SCALANCE SC622-2C or SCALANCE SC626-2C Industrial Firewall Appliance can be used for network separation in PROFIsafe environment. Interested in purchasing Industrial Firewall Appliances? High-performance Industrial Firewall Appliances offer you versatile firewall mechanisms to protect even flat networks with a throughput of 750 Mbit/s and up to 1,000 firewall rules.
In addition to the versatile firewall mechanisms of the Industrial Firewall Appliances, Industrial VPN Appliances also permit up to 200 VPN connections with a data throughput of up to 120 Mbit/s. The connection can be made via 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet ports and over fiber optic for large distances (up to 200 km). SCALANCE S615 EEC with additional coating of the printed circuit board is suitable for use under harsh environmental conditions, e.g. in the oil and gas industry.
