IT Security and gapless traceability

SIMATIC lets you fully exploit the advantages offered by the increasing convergence of the automation and office worlds. You can exchange data seamlessly across all levels (collaborative manufacturing), or access production data from anywhere via the Internet. In response to the resulting stricter security requirements, SIMATIC offers you two complementary processes: IT Security for protecting production and data, and Audit Trail for complete traceability of changes.

To protect machines and plants, firewall functions, access protection, encryption, virtual private networks, etc. can easily be implemented with our SCLANCE S product line. SIMATIC Logon adds a user management function to the engineering or control system so you can issue role-based access rights to plant personnel for monitoring machines or plants. And SIMATIC Batch or WinCC flexible, for example, will seamlessly log operator activities and engineering changes so you can trace them as necessary.
